Most of us have figured out I hope that happiness can't be purchased. Looking at how well people manage their money might just be a better question as to happiness in regards to finances.

Of course the CHURCH answer is Jesus will bring complete happiness, but I know a bunch of Christians and they are some of the most unhappy people I have met.

I think it is this simple: OBEDIENCE = HAPPINESS

Let's converse about that this weekend as we continue our series...WHY?

blessings and peace, and please, can the kids actually go to school sometime this week? (for you tropical people...the snow finally came).
