Happiness is a spiritual need. And if it's a spiritual need, the filling of that need can only come from God. (Mike Lee, American pastor)
We delight in our right to “pursue happiness.” Yet, happiness is often elusive, difficult to find and hold onto. Jesus spoke about happy people in Matthew 5; He called them “blessed,” which can be understood as “happy.” You can find your happiness in a relationship with God.
But may the righteous be glad and rejoice before God; may they be happy and joyful. (Psalm 68:3)
