Holy? Happy? Take your pick.
“Give me both!” That was quick.
Eugenia offers the word “happiness” for this week’s Thursday Prompt.
I was listening to David Pawson’s second lecture on Leviticus this morning where he made the comment at about 8:20 in the video, “The only way to be really happy is to be really holy.” So that’s what I was thinking of when writing this poem.


That is a stunning assessment. Never heard this before. “The only way to be really happy is to be really holy.”
That is the way of Jesus.
Blessings.

Although I’ve listened to Pawson’s lecture before, it was the first time what he said stood out for me.
