Finding True Happiness

The world and USA are going through a chaotic and difficult time. It’s easy to get caught up in everything that is going on. But, to be happy it’s important to get out of our own way. It’s easy to be self- absorbed in our modern day culture. Social media is a big contributor. Scripture tells us “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also” ( Matthew 6:21).

For our own well-being it’s important to love and do for others more than we do for ourselves; this will bring true happiness. Jesus said “He who finds his life will lose it; and he who loses his life for My sake will find it” (Matthew 10:39). The most liberating and inspiring book that creates positive change is the Bible. It will take us out of ourselves, and guide us towards helping others. This creates true happiness in our lives.

Jesus gave us the template for giving, and when we give of ourselves in helping others we truly please our Heavenly Father. I pray that we start thinking of God and others more than ourselves, and when we do God will bless us abundantly; love and blessings to all, Carby.
