Description
Do you ever feel like all you do is work for a payday that never seems to arrive? It's a question Ted Dekker has asked often, and it always seems to strike a chord. The follow-up questions are just as puzzling: What does it take to find true happiness? How does the Christian find satisfaction? What if we're missing the point of our lives here on earth? Rather than continue the quest for happiness, many of us settle for some form of contentment. And while this seems like the good Christian thing to do -- after all, Paul knew how to be content -- our contentment has led to apathy and to disillusionment. Gone are the fervor and enthusiasm of youth. In their places are the harsh realities of unfulfilled desires and unsatisfying possessions. Are you breathlessly yearning for the day you step beyond this life into the next? Are you obsessed with heaven? Do you embrace the pleasures of this life as a foretaste of so much more to come? Eternity has been set in your heart (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Embrace it, and live now in the happiness you seek. - Jacket flap.
