Being Delighted With Life (Psalm 16)

Series: Sing Your Way to Victory 11/11/12 Happiness has been described to be as necessary as health, more elusive than success, and harder to define than love. Happiness comes from a root word which literally means “chance” -so it speaks of trusting to luck that something good will happen. That is why happiness is so elusive, people chase it but rarely find, and when they do it is fleeting at best, because something happens and that feeling is lost. So is true and lasting happiness really possible? And how is found? David answers that question in Psalm 16. Psalm 16 is called a Psalm of delight. David uses the words "delight," "pleasant," "glad," and "joy" repeatedly. It is obvious that David had come to place of delighting in His life.  What was his secret? As we look closely at David’s words in this Psalm, they reveal to us the secret of being delighted with life.
