The Gospel's Counsel is Sufficient GRM 848

The world tells us we have to be happy. We have to have good feelings. If we're not happy in in the job or the marriage, then something is wrong. But the issue in this life is not, how do I feel? How happy am I? What am I enjoying on the human level. The issue is, what is pleasing to God. How did men like the apostle paul face execution with confidence. I can't even face living with a person I don't like very well and I don't have feelings for, I mean I've done everything that could be expected. I need to step back and realize that I can do everything God has called me to as his child.
