Imagine your idea of a perfect, relaxing day. Maybe you’re sitting poolside with some iced tea. Maybe you’re inside watching the newest season of the latest show on Netflix. It’s the kind of day you can take pleasure in! While days like these are not necessarily sinful, what would happen if this were all we did with our lives? The problem is not the pleasure; the problem is rooting our source of happiness in it. If our idea of happiness is only found in pleasure, we will constantly be looking from one thing to the next, looking for the thing or moment that will fill our pleasure tank for that day. Let us not find our root of happiness through pleasure, but instead forever through God.

How do we mistake pleasure for happiness?

How can we always remember that God is the source of all happiness?
