Unlocking Happiness...

Labels:


"Life is like a combination lock; your job is to find the right numbers, in the right order, so you can have anything you want." - Brian Tracy (Renown Businessman, Influential Speaker, and Knowledgeable Author)

Well, this is totally false...and definitely true.

It is totally false in the fact that this highlights humanism, man's control of his own destiny. The idea that man can just keep trying for the right 'combination' of things to achieve success and obtain lasting happiness is preposterous; because without God mankind can never truly know happiness.

Now on the other hand, it is definitely true in the fact that only through the right combination of things can one obtain true success and happiness.
Joshua 1:7-9 tells us, "Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper withersoever thou goest.
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.
We can know success and happiness when we combine the indwelling of the Holy Spirit (which only comes by salvation), obedience to the commands of Christ, and an attitude that strives to please and honor God!

See so Mr. Tracy is right...and wrong! But what about you? Are you combining the things of God to be happy? Or are you trying to combine the stuff of this world to be happy? My friend, please leave a comment requesting more info or email me at the link above and I would love to share more with you!
