The Key to Happiness
All we need for happiness is right in front of us
It is easy to resist taking care of oneself if we run
at full speed as though we are the only one who can get things done. We all
need to set priorities, making sure we focus on Christ and not let that which
is transitory rule our lives. If we pay attention to our health, family and
spiritual life, everything else will take care of itself. We shouldn't let life
be so full of work that we don't have time to focus on the things that bring us
joy. We must pay attention when the Lord is calling us to slow down.
If we focus only on the things that haven't been done
and ignore the little things that bring joy to our life, we'll find ourselves
in a rut. If we are constantly thinking of where we'd rather be living, or the
job we'd rather have, or the work that still needs to be completed, we'll wake
up one day and realize all we've needed for happiness has been right in front
of us. We don't want to wait to enjoy what we already have.
With love in Christ,
Abbot Tryphon
