Are you in pursuit of happiness? See what Billy Graham once said about what it means to be “happy.” This message was preached in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 1979.

nowhere in the scripture does it teach

that you had a search and pursue

happiness you find happiness as you do

your duty you find happiness as you lead

a disciplined life before God you’ll

have periods of happiness but God

nowhere promises happiness is to be a

goal in life it’s not a goal our goal is

to obey God our goal is to do the will

of God our goal is to be a disciple of

the Lord Jesus Christ and as we move

along we will pick up happiness here and

there along the way if you sense a

longing for God a desire to change and

be a new person that’s God speaking to

your heart and as you respond he will

give you the ability and the power to

change because he has to do the changing

to delay makes the right decision harder

an indecision in itself is a choice you

decide tonight that you’re going to wait

til some other time that’s a choice away

from God and your heart gets harder the

Bible says and the next time you have an

opportunity to come to Christ your heart

may not be as ready as it is tonight he

can fill that cosmic void in your heart

because that void in your heart is made

because you’re made in the image of God

and without god that’s avoid that that

only God can fill nothing else can fill

it marriage came Philip drugs came

Philip sex Kate filling alcohol can fill

it friendships can fill it the church

even came Philly religion can fill it

but the person of Jesus Christ can fill

it and can give you a brand new life

from tonight on if you’re willing to

accept the challenge of Christ who loved

you so much that he died on the cross

and rose again and it’s alive tonight

ready to come into your heart and into
