Lives are often spent in desperate search for this illusive goal. Often, it is never found because it is not clearly defined. True oy Is not pleasure. Pleasure may bring laughter and pleasant sensations but it lasts only momentarily. Neither is true oy found in happiness.

Someone has well said, "Happiness is like the waves of the sea, sometimes turbuiant, sometimes calm. Joy is like the bottom of the sea, untouched by anything on the surface." Christ promises an inward foy "that no one taketh away from you." (John 16:22) It can only come through the inward peace of knowing that we are right with God..
