Fantasizing about future happiness
will never bring fulfillment,
because fantasy is unreality.
Even though I am invisible, I am far more Real
than the world you see around you.
My reality is eternal and unchanging.
– September 11, Jesus Calling
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty.
I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation,
whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.
– Philippians 4:12

“Fantasizing about future happiness will never bring fulfillment,” is such a deep truth. It steals the happiness of now.
Interesting how fantasizing and worrying can get the same result – stealing our happiness of now. Hmmm…hadn’t thought of that before, but now it’s something to ponder…
I loved this quote, “Even though I’m invisible, I’m far more real than the world you see around you.” Yes, yes, yes. It’s so easy to focus on what we can see, but what we see is temporary and He is eternal. Our troubles are temporary, our pain is temporary and His love is forever.
