his trials without losing the sense of
happiness. The people who at., happy
are the people who have interccurse
with God, To have happiness we must
be active, seeking the things that are
worth while and seeking after
God, In Christ we have a
eyelet ion of what God in it, his great
heart of love and beam y of life. Prac-
lice of the power and presence ef God
pi ()duces happiness.
