Whitney Houston: The Lesson She Left Us With

She had it all. Fame, fortune, looks, success, voice, hit records. You name it, she had it. Some of her close friends may even say she had happiness at times.

If this world had it, Whitney either owned it, had owned it and sold it, or didn’t want to buy it.

Can you really buy your way to happiness. Maybe – I don’t know. However, I do know one thing, you can’t buy joy — the simple joy of living, the joy of being alive, or the joy of being comfortable with one’s self and your station in life.

This good earth can’t give you joy – its impossible. Joy comes from above. In the belief in our saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Don’t believe me? Ask Michael Jackson. Ask Jim Morrison. Janis. Jimi.

I’m living proof. In the last couple of years my ‘happiness’ has developed into pure unadulterated joy. How did I do it? Becoming closer to my Lord.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not talking about religion. Religion can get between you and Jesus. I’m talking about Christianity – the belief in one God and his son who died for our sins.

Judging someone is ‘above my pay-grade’. Here’s hoping Whitney has found what she was so desperately looking for.

Blessings,

Woody
