The Bullet of Godly Goals, Part 3: Happiness

Amidst all of life’s activity one should stop and ask, “Am I really happy?” "Have I found true joy?” “Do I know where I’m going?” Activity is NOT synonymous with happiness.

There is real barrenness in the cluttered life. The greatest Christian who ever lived … Paul … said he did one thing: pursued the knowledge of God! If your pursuits haven’t yet taken you to life’s greatest adventure, maybe you’d better re-examine your direction. Don’t clutter you life with second rater priorities!

After all, it’s not how many years you pack into life BUT how much life you pack into your years that determines real success.

This is what Jesus meant in Mark 8:36, “For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his own soul?”
