When you study Bible verses about happiness, a few things stand out. First, we can have inner happiness even when we are in difficult situations. Everything doesn't have to be right in your world for you to experience the feeling of being happy. If you keep your eye on the bigger picture, it's easier to rise above the trials and tribulations of life and still find reasons to be happy. If you keep your focus on God and eternity, it is easier to experience happiness even in challenging times.
In John 10:10, Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life and have it to the full." We are not meant to merely make it through life. We are supposed to live a life to the fullest. What does that look like? It's happy and joyful. We are not supposed to simply be alive in the sense that our heart is beating, and we have breath in our lungs. We are supposed to have a life that we enjoy.
