Finding true happiness

 

“Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day.” –Henri Nouwen

I recently decided to jump into the book of Philippians.  For the most part, when I am wanting to study a specific book, I grab a Warren Wiersbe commentary to help me understand the scripture and pull out the main ideas.  The title of Wiersbe’s commentary for Philippians is “Be Joyful: Even When Things Go Wrong, You Can Be Happy”.  Sounds comforting right?  Heck yeah!  I was just reading the introduction and the overview of the book and felt it on my heart to share with you what Wiersbe has to say.
