Happiness

by Alistair Begg

Psalm 32:1–2
 (ID: 2539)

Many of us desire more happiness than we currently enjoy. In Psalm 32, King David begins by describing those who are blessed but quickly surprises us by declaring that honesty and forgiveness are the keys to true happiness. As Alistair Begg considers this psalm, he teaches us that we can and should be truthful about ourselves and our need for forgiveness. Because the creator God has offered the needed remedy, we can live joyfully in relationship with Him.
