Today's Treasure: "Come and share your master's happiness!" -Matthew 25:21
In my bible study recently, we talked about being hopeful. About being ready for God's return, and our entrance into heaven. That is our eternal hope, that one day we will live in heaven and not have any troubles, fears, sadness, sickness or anxiety, just to name a few. Personally, I'm not one to dream, so this lesson was interesting to read through. To think that God wants to surpass our dreams is difficult to swallow, especially if you gave up and stopped dreaming. I never thought about the differences between being blessed and being happy, but there truly is a difference. We might not always be happy in life, but we certainly are blessed on a daily basis, even if it doesn't always appear that way.
Question 1: Read John 13:3-17. What result did Christ guarantee if His followers put into practice what He demonstrated to them?
Question 2: Can you think of a time when you sensed the fullness and favor of God but would not characterize the time as happy?
