Finding True and Lasting Happiness
In 2 Nephi 2:25 we are taught, “Adam fell that men might be; and men are, that they might have joy.” At times, it can be easy to get caught up in what the world says will bring us happiness.
President Russell M. Nelson expressed, “Here is the grand truth: while the world insists that power, possessions, popularity, and pleasures of the flesh bring happiness, they do not! They cannot! What they do produce is nothing but a hollow substitute for ‘the blessed and happy state of those [who] keep the commandments of God’ [Mosiah 2:41].”1
Elder D. Todd Christofferson shares ways we can find enduring happiness.2
“Lasting joy is found in keeping the commandments of God, and the commandments of God are found in the gospel of Jesus Christ.”
“We can find… joy as we love others with ‘the pure love of Christ’ (Moroni 7:47), share restored truth with them, and invite them to gather with the covenant people.”
“We should not be afraid that the trials and challenges we inevitably face in mortality will prevent or destroy our joy.”
What is one thing that brings you true happiness?
