expressed simply by a deep-down peace,



             thrill,  and  contentment  of  soul  that  can



             sometimes provoke envy from unbelievers



             and perplex the unfulfilled pleasure-seeker.



             Ecclesiastes 2:26 says, “For God giveth to a



             man that is good in his sight wisdom, and


             knowledge, and joy: but to the sinner he



             giveth travail...”




                    Fulfillment in life and true joy will never



             be  realized  until  we  live  our  lives  for



             God’s  purposes  and  God’s  pleasure,



             which begins when we repent of sin and


             receive a new and Godly nature by trusting



             in God’s provision for forgiveness of sins



             through the death, burial, and resurrection



             of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
