Happiness is in You (Part 4)

In this message, Dr. Youssef reminds us that the deepest longing of the human soul can only be satisfied by God Himself. Jesus said, “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied” (Matthew 5:6). This is not a hunger for religious activity or public recognition, but a burning desire for more of the righteousness of Christ within us—more of God and less of self. When we attempt to satisfy this longing with worldly approval, self-effort, or spiritual pretense, we end up weak, irritable, and spiritually starved. But when we seek the holiness and presence of Christ above all, He promises real joy, lasting peace, and the deep satisfaction that only the Holy Spirit can give. This is the fourth step in the superstructure of true happiness.
