*HAPPY - CONTENT, KINGDOM, SALVATION, BLISS, PEACE, GOODNESS
God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing. (C S Lewis)
If you have evolved to the point where things of the body are not of concern to you, then you are even more free to seek your joy on Earth as it is in heaven. God says it's okay to be happy. (Conversations, p186)
The happy person isn't the one who always gets what he wants, so much as the one who uses what he has. (Crucifix, p19)
"Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." could be translated as: "God blesses those who are poor and realize their need for him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs." (New Living) or "Happy are those conscious of their spiritual need." (New World) (Matt 5:3)
