I Want to Be Happy

DAY 1 OF 3

šŸ“– Day 1 – Joy Is Possible

Biblical joy isn’t about luck—it’s about where and with whom you choose to live your life. The psalmist describes a tree that bears fruit and doesn’t wither—because it's planted by the river. It’s not about how strong the tree is, but where it’s rooted.

Joy doesn’t come from performance, but from proximity. That’s why ordinary people can walk in peace while others, with everything going for them, still feel anxious.

This text doesn’t promise eternal summer, but deep roots that hold even in life’s harshest winters.

Storms will come, but the tree stands firm. The secret isn’t in the seasons—it’s in the roots. And God’s Word is fertile ground.

šŸ™‹ā€ā™‚ļø Reflection Questions

  1. Where have I been planting my life lately?
  2. What do I hunger for more—pleasure or God’s presence?

šŸ™ Prayer

ā€œLord, help me stop seeking joy in things that dry up with time. Plant my soul near You, where there is life, fruit, and peace—even in the difficult seasons.ā€
