Happiness is neither within us only, or without us; it is the union of ourselves with God. -Pascal
Romans 14:17, For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
Have you ever gone to the kitchen looking for something to eat but could not find what you wanted? You grab a snack and nope. You fix a sandwich and nope. You keep going and going and the next thing you know is you feel like an old man sitting in a recliner but still haven’t found what you want!
I believe some people go about through this life doing the same thing when it comes to their happiness. They buy this pair of shoes and nope. They buy this tool and nope. They take this job and nope. They move to this neighborhood and nope. They buy this car and nope. They marry this woman and nope. They marry that guy and nope. They keep going and going until they are old sitting in a recliner wondering, “where did life go?” but never found the true happiness they were looking for.
Hey friend, Be still and know He is God. True happiness is not found in things, places, or people. True happiness is found in the Person of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the “missing piece” to the puzzle of your life. Jesus will satisfy every thing you have been looking for! Confess Him as Lord and Saviour and He will be that happiness you are looking for!
