Greetings sisters!
Hopefully you're holding fast in the faith where you are!
I was pondering on happy and the biblical view of it is very different to the world's of course. They think as long as people are happy that's OK but we know true peace and joy come from the Lord alone. It is the same word often translated as blessed but we get the idea what true happiness and blessings are!
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God:
Psalm 146:5
Happy is that people, that is in such a case: yea, happy is that people, whose God is the LORD.
Psalm 144:15
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.
Psalm 1:1-2
But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
Luke 11:28
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
Proverbs 3:13-15
Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.Psalm 128:1
He that handleth a matter wisely shall find good: and whoso trusteth in the LORD, happy is he.Proverbs 16:20
If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.John 13:17
Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.Psalm 112:1
If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.1 Peter 4:14
There's so many more too! It's refreshing to be reminded of so much truth! The world can think or say what it likes but we delight in God's truth. That's what matters! We are to be sober too and there's certainly a place for sorrow in this world too. Our Saviour knew that well. God's Word is the truth! Let us continue to seek it there.
Keep striving on sisters!
Love to you in Christ our Lord.
