Pursuing Holiness Over Happiness

“You say, ‘If I felt happy I could trust Christ.’ But that is trusting your feelings, not Christ.” — Charles Spurgeon

Father, today we pursue the holiness of Christ, not the happiness of our own desires. Lord, I long for the peace that only comes from a walk with You. I place my trust in You because Your promises have proven true even in the times that life doesn’t deliver happiness!

More of You and less of me, in Jesus' name.
