I have heard some groups teach that with god in our life we can be happy everyday. What is your view on that? Do you think that with god in our lives we will be happy every day?

Can we be happy every day? yes. Will we be happy every day? Probably not.

Why?

Because we are human and we will always allow doubts, fears, frustrations, worries get in the way of our faith as well as our happiness.

Much like Peter when he stepped out of the boat and started walking on water to meet Our Lord. He took several steps then the reality of what he was doing started to "sink in". He looked away from Our Lord, started looking at the waves, the storm, everything else but Our Lord. Then he started to sink.

It is much the same with our daily happiness, there are always going to be hardships, troubles in our life but as long as we keep our eyes on Our Lord dealing with the issues honestly and appropriately. Looking back at them, very often, what we find was making us unhappy were not the problems themselves but how we choose to look at and deal with the issues.

We can choose to let things get us down, annoy us and make us unhappy or we can find the positive (granted that can be difficult sometimes) and enjoy the adventure that Our Lord has given us which we call life.

The choice to be happy or sad is, for the most part, ours.

Just something to think about.
