What is the key to happiness? This is probably the most searched question amongst us humans. Aristotle said something to the effect that everything every human does is in the pursuit of happiness.
Well yesterday at Mass the answer to that question was clear. Following God’s words and commandments equals happiness. St Thomas Acquainas aptly put it : my heart is restless until it rests in You. My lovelies I know this to be true because I live it everyday. I work so hard to make a good living. I travel a lot for work and leisure. I have a loving family. And all this is great and thanks be to God for that. Sure, these things bring comfort and good vibes, good times, warm fuzzy feelings. But that internal joy is missing. I only feel that internal joy and peace when I put all my trust and hope in God. When I want for nothing because I know He provides. When I’m set in my heart to follow His ways and commandments because as my Creator I have nothing else to do but place myself as an instrument in His hands. Almost like this chalk in my hands. Imagine if this chalk decides not to chalk one day. Imagine if the chalk speaks up one days and says, hey Angie, nooo I don’t wanna be crushed…
Off it goes then, to do whatever else it wants. But would it be happy? When it was created to be crushed? 😅
Ok ok terrible example but you get the general gist. 😬
In all cases my message here today is to follow the Creator’s direction because SURELY God, who created me, knows what’s best for me.
And with this in mind, let’s send all our thoughts prayers and support to those suffering in Turkey and Syria. As at yesyersay 28,000+ people had died due to fatal earthquakes 😭🙆🏾♂️. Please please beyond prayer also donate to the various charities working to bring aid to our suffering brothers and sisters. We don’t understand why such terrible things happen but all we know is that we are so sad and so sorry for all those suffering. We wish this would never happen. Please let’s stand up and help our brothers and sisters suffering wherever they are. 💕💕💕
Much love,
UPJ
