"I just want to be happy." The challenge with that sentiment is understanding what it truly means to be happy. Am I happy when I feel good? Am I happy when everything is going my way in life? A part of us recognizes that these kinds of approaches to happiness are shallow, that true happiness has to have more depth to it. Throughout the Scriptures we are told that true happiness is realized more and more as we find ourselves in greater harmony with the truth--the truth about ourselves, the truth about God's grace, the truth about his design for our lives. As we begin our journey through 1 Timothy, unraveling the mysteries of a godly church and home, Paul is going to lay the foundation for this entire series. Where do I find true happiness? We find it in Jesus, in his life and death, in his forgiveness and love, in his teaching and guidance, in learning to live more and more in his grace and truth.
