Happiness

Reflection

“It is the chiefest point of happiness that a person is willing to be who they are.”
 ~ Erasmus

Prayer

God of all good things, like the prodigal son, too often we go out searching for happiness only to discover that true happiness resides with you. We pray today for the courage to pursue true happiness. Strengthen us that we might resist the temptations that promise happiness but often leave us feeling lost and alone. Guide us through the gift of your Holy Spirit to desire true happiness and possess the willingness to seek it in honesty and sincerity. In your name, we pray. Amen.
