True happiness only comes when we don’t have to wonder and worry about where we will spend eternity.

God has made a way where we can be assured about Heaven being our home. Hell was prepared for the devil and his angles, not for us.

So much of our lives we have been taught there are certain things you have to do or not do to become a Christian.

In the Old Testament was the law the people had to live by. They had to make different sacrifices for certain things.

But the good news is that God sent His Only Begotten Son as our sacrifice to pay our sin debt. Jesus came to fulfill the law.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16.

Jesus will let us know what we need to do or not do, not other people.

We have a choice. We can dwell on things that make us unhappy or we can dwell on things of God and experience true happiness.
