God Wants You to Be Happy
Because God knew that our growth would require that we make choices and experience opposition, He sent His Son Jesus Christ to be our Savior and to help us find lasting happiness in this life. The gospel of Jesus Christ promises peace, enduring joy, and strength to those who faithfully follow Godβs commandments and are baptized into Christβs Church. The Book of Mormon teaches:
"Adam fell that men might be, and men are that they might have joy"
2 Nephi 2:25
While experiencing sorrow is a natural part of this life, it is not meant to be the only thing you experience. God blessed us with many beautiful and wonderful things to enjoy on this earth.
One of the greatest sources of joy and meaning in your life can be your relationships with other people. Giving and receiving love is part of the purpose of life. The promise of eternal life with God and your loved ones can provide hope that carries you through difficult times.
