TRUE HAPPINESS
by Joanne Lowe July 6, 2006
“Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy
presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for
evermore.”
Psalm 16: 11
King James Version
If you want to have true happiness and joy, stay in the presence of
Jesus. This world with all its charms and enticements can’t give true
happiness and joy. It is only by being in the presence of the Saviour of
the world that we can have joy in our hearts, a joy that will last.
A lot of times we cause our own unhappiness by doing things and going
places that Jesus has told us not to do. He has told us that we are in
the world, but we are not of the world if He lives in our hearts. We are
to witness to people, but we need to only form close friendships with
those who love Jesus.
Jesus has told us that He is preparing a mansion for us, but if we have
Him in our hearts and stay in constant fellowship with Him, we will have
a mansion on earth no matter how small our homes. I live in a trailer
but I am happier here than I have ever been in my life and the reason
I’m happier here is because I stay in the presence of Jesus. Yes, I have
heartaches and sorrows like everyone else, but I know that the Saviour
of the world Loves me and nobody or nothing can take His Love from me.
Are you carrying a heavy burden in your heart today? If so, take it to
Jesus and let Him carry it for you. He is faithful and compassionate to
take our burdens from us. He Loves you with an everlasting Love. He will
never leave you, not even for a minute. Give your heart and life to the
one who gave His all for you. Have you invited the Christ of Calvary
into your hearts and asked Him to forgive you and save you? If not,
there is no better time than right now.
