We all want to be happy. We all seek happiness in a thousand different ways, but we forget to look for it in the only place it can be found. Riches and glory and the goods of life cannot guarantee happiness, nor, can they save us from evils and sorrows. No friend can take from us the fear and danger of death.
God and God alone can give happiness, in life and death. He is the best of friend, the dearest friend. He wishes to give us happiness and He solemnly promises to give it to all who are devoted to Him. Read His Words and Promises, their meaning is clear. No one can possibly doubt them.
Jesus promises clearly to help us in our difficulties, to console us in our sorrows, to bless our undertakings, to give every one the help and graces necessary for their position in life. He promises every one, the graces necessary for the perfect fulfilment of their individual duties.
What more could we ask for?
