    Gladness Drawn From God Can Never Fail, May 4

    Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased. Psalm 4:7.RRe 126.1

    The Christian should not set too high a value, or depend too much, upon a happy flight of feeling. These feelings are not always true guides. It should be the study of every Christian to serve God from principle, and not be ruled by feeling. By so doing, faith will be brought into exercise, and will increase.—Testimonies for the Church 1:161.RRe 126.2

    Feeling is not faith: the two are distinct. Faith is ours to exercise, but joyful feeling and the blessing are God’s to give.—Early Writings, 72RRe 126.3

    If the Christian lives a humble, self-sacrificing life, peace and joy in the Lord will be the result.—Testimonies for the Church 1:161.RRe 126.4

    Happiness drawn from earthly sources is as changeable as varying circumstances can make it; but the peace of Christ is a constant and abiding peace. It does not depend upon any circumstances in life, on the amount of worldly goods, or the number of earthly friends. Christ is the fountain of living water, and happiness drawn from Him can never fail.—Thoughts from the Mount of Blessing, 16.RRe 126.5
