“If you want to be truly happy and blessed, if you would like to know true joy as a Christian, here is the prescription~ ‘Blessed (truly happy) are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness’~ not after happiness.  Do not go on seeking thrills; seek righteousness….Set your whole aim upon righteousness and holiness and as certainly as you do so you will be blessed, you will be filled, you will get the happiness you long for.  Seek for happiness and you will never find it, seek righteousness and you will discover you are happy~”

Dr. Martin Lloyd-Jones
