Are You Happy?

A Preacher ask everyone one day:
ARE YOU HAPPY?

I was speechless in my mind.
WAS I HAPPY?

If I serve God and do it without
joy, then what good is it?

Rom 14:17 For the kingdom of God
is... RIGHTEOUNESS... PEACE...
JOY in the Holy Ghost.

I got determined from that day
forward that I was going to find
the JOY of Christ and keep it.

Interesting how simple and yet
profound this idea was to me.
It has stayed with me all these
years. I am reminded of it daily.
