Are You On A Happiness Trek Or A Truth Trek?

Image
 What do you want ADDED most to your life? Many might think that a brand new car, a better house, a fabulous wardrobe, or a luxurious vacation will satisfy and while all these would be an enjoyable ‘happening’ in that moment, but once that moment passes… Then What? The problem with fun, exciting, expensive things or events is that as nice as they are, they only last for a limited period of time — and then there is an end to it. It might be a new love affair, partying, or doing something exciting — or even dangerous — or any number of other treks down a road seeking happiness, but once that moment of ‘Happiness’ concludes, where does that road take you? Our search in life for satisfaction places all of us at a crossroad of CHOICES. Either we choose treks for HAPPINESS or a trek for TRUTH .

Years ago when listening on old radios it required carefully 'TUNING' precisely onto the right frequency. When you did the signal would come in strong or you’d hear a lot of static. Then as you drove further away from the broadcast tower, the signal would become so weak that eventually you couldn’t hear it at all. It wasn’t the station’s fault! You just moved away from the signal. Moving AWAY from what God is saying to you works exactly the same way. You see, God has been broadcasting His message to you all your life, but with all the other distractions of static in our modern world His voice is easy to miss. So the question is can you hear what He is saying, or are you moving away from Him so far that you cannot hear what He is saying to you? Many people think that tuning into ANY broadcast about spirituality, truth, philosophy, or religion will do, but there is only ONE frequency that has ALL the answers that you need to hear, and that is the GOD FREQUENCY Friend, in reading ...
