How would you define happiness? Better yet, would you allow God to define it for you? Often times with the pursuit of happiness, we forget the substance of that happiness is the things we are hoping, praying and believing God for, but we tend to get ahead of ourself and out of him. Hope means going beyond our unpleasant daily experiences to the joy of simply knowing God. We live by trusting in the Lord, and not in the benefits, happiness, or success we may think we have and are experiencing in this life time, but instead our hope comes from God, and in placing our faith in him for the things that are hoped for and believed in because he will grant you the true desires of your heart, after all, he put them there in the first place and in the Lord our God is where you will find your happiness!!!!
