The potential for a happy abundant Christian life is available to all who would make Jesus the Lord of their lives yet there are many Christians whose lives lack the joy and fullness of a truly happy life. A keen observer once said to me "You Christians seem to have a religion that makes you miserable. You are like a man with a headache. He does not want to get rid of his head but it hurts him to keep it. You cannot expect outsiders to seek earnestly for anything so uncomfortable." Then for the first time I saw that the religion of Christ ought to be and was meant to be something that would make its possessors happy not miserable. I began then and there to ask the Lord to show me the secret of a happy Christian life.
