Where do you find pleasure? Where do you find happiness? Is it throwing a perfect pitch? Is it completing a long pass? Is it hitting a little dimpled ball into the cup? Is it kicking the winning goal? Is it running for a touchdown? Solomon said in Proverbs 15:13&16, “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith.” Joy comes from the “fear” of the Lord. This fear is not being afraid of God; this fear means to respect and obey the dear Lord. And if you fear the Lord, you will have joy beyond any pleasure that this world has to offer! And you will be happy forever and forever. And that’s real happiness.
