We should stbp periodically • to seek, out the right. road. Every action is aimed ultimately,'in the°»direction of happiness. It is God himself who has planted this hunger for happiness in the very depthsof the human heart. This hunger need -not go, unsatisfied, for -God does not plant a seed which he .has no intention of harvesting. We have all experienced pleasure and joy in our lives. Pleasure might be defined—as the happiness of the body, joy. . ° . that of the soul. We should never rest'" content with just pleasure; it will never fully satisfy. If life- is spent • ex- clusively in the pursuit 'of pleasure that life is condemned Joy,, on the other hand, is, a reality of the spirit and shares. the spirit's immortality. glcorne• it into your life and you will at the same time ex, perience something of eternity. Your ,problems, trials, suf- ferings and death should never be allowed to extinguish the joy of the spirit. Pleasure and suffering are'in- compatible companions, but ,joy is able to transcend even the most trying of sufferings. ' It must be clearly understood that' pleasure is .not something bad, so long as it is not pursued as an end in itself. Gratefully ac- cept the pleasures which are a gift of God to help you on your way through life. • The road that leads to hap piness -begins at your ,doorstep Friends of ours write they're moving again, the fifth time in eight years. So many people are transient these days with little' chance, it listed,... "but I say unto you." Those old standards, and ideals, now over- . ;ssed, Christ 'discards.' Dr.,dick adds,, 'One way to be„a sinner in His • seems,- to -put-down roots.:Yet, I --eyes is to live its H ”; new -day as suppose that all depends on though the old difys till' were your point of 'view. here.' A. little boy expressed , his . Heaven and earth combine g,, opinion very nicely when his ar- me,d-forces father was'moved to another station, and the -family, finding`: it difficult to locate living quarters, were making out at a motel. Some sym- pathetic soul said 'to the lad, "I'm sorry you're having such a' ' hard time finding a .home." "Ob, replied the boy; "we have a home ... w'e just haven't found a house to put it in yet." You see, he knew it really didn't matter where the moving van took their chairs, tables and beds; .•his family's ' home was being together no matter where they "were. Beautiful. I haven't moved for-18,years, but before that I made seven shifts in 11 years ,and, L. know it's a wretched --business. It uproots the whole family from their friends, school, church and other activities. Then there's the packing and the inevitable breakages rand after the. moving van is packed there's still a° heap of little . na'aty,, things like stiff brushes, °- cans half`'fiiled with paint, an _old „coal oil, lantern .11 things , common sense tells you you'll rfeVeh need but which you sim- ply can't' leave behind either! There's the new 'house with ids different" sized rooms, dif- ferent length windows so that none of your curtains will fit at all. And,°noymatter bow carefully you've packed, you'll still go for days looking for something absolutely essential ... such as a comb, soap or the iron. Of course, _,moving has its compensations; like- making wider friendships, attaining crew ,.,experiences, and the chance to, live in a different part of the country or world. Not the least to be mentioned is the. , unparalleled chance to pitch out all the trash. That's worth a good deal. .Henry Van Dyke once wrote that -Moving Day is going on all our lives .:.'from house to'house we move', he says, 'from, youth to age..'•frorn opihion ' to save us from stagnation. They are wise people who know it and make the. Moving -Day of Life 'a challenge and not a curse. and radiates , out to others. You're unhappy? Why? 18 it bcruse no—one hastake ,, notice 'of your•work?„Your suc- cesses, your efforts, is it because you Kaye something to say and no one will, listen? Ask God, to forgive. you and then t)rrn' your attention out- wards toothers. Ask about their work, their interests, their hopes and disappointments'and these, without even suspecting it, will free you from your own concerns and will hold out to you the gift of joy. A conflict arises. within each - -of us from the fact that our desires are infinite whereas our ability to realize them are stric- tly limited. You must also realize that you can never be fully happy without God, who alone can satisfy that ,longing. fP - Woe to the self satisfied .who have extinguished the flame of desire for the infinite by drowning it in the' shallow waters of`finite experience. Joy .is nothing less than that new life which we find in losing the old life of sin. In Christ and through Him, the mystery of joy is made equivalent to the mystery of the resurrect on. - Where do you stand ,,,with Christ? The measure of your closeness to him is exactly the measure of your joy. God is joy and. in• giving- you rsel cite -God. you are giving yourself to joy. St. Paul says: Eye hath not seen nor ear heard neither has it entered into the heart of •man, what things God hath prepared for those who love him.'
