TRUE happiness will NEVER be found anywhere but in Christ. Without Him, it all leads to death. All of it. Some of us had to learn that the hard way, but we pray others can know it from the beginning and be spared the heartache. God bless you!
Psalms 64:10
"The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, and trust in Him. And all the upright in heart shall glory."
Psalms 33:21
"For our heart shall rejoice in Him, Because we have trusted in His holy name."
The recipe for happiness from a guy who seemingly lost it all, but found he had not :
JOB 22:
21 “Submit to God and be at peace with him;
in this way prosperity will come to you.
22 Accept instruction from his mouth
and lay up his words in your heart.
23 If you return to the Almighty, you will be restored:
If you remove wickedness far from your tent
24 and assign your nuggets to the dust,
your gold of Ophir to the rocks in the ravines,
25 then the Almighty will be your gold,
the choicest silver for you.
26 Surely then you will find delight in the Almighty
and will lift up your face to God.
