Candy's thoughts: When we attend worship on Sunday mornings, do we enter only hoping to become a happier person, or do we want to know what God has to say to us from His Word? Of course good feelings are a normal part of a worship service, but this should not be our primary motive for participation in Sabbath gatherings. We do not exist just to be happy. The holiness that the "King of Heaven" intends for His "ransomed, healed, restored, and forgiven" children will be far better for us than the quick fix of positive emotions. We need to be more concerned with knowing God than needing the very passing pleasures of this fleeting life.
