Being Eternally Happy

Someone asked me what it meant to be eternally happy I closed my eyes and thought of you I pictured your smile, your laugh, your grace, and your style All the things that drew me to you in the beginning Of course you would make me feel this way I love you and everything about you, there's no denying that But I reassessed the question What does it mean to be eternally happy? To be eternally happy means to be at peace with God Living him, breathing him, and most importantly knowing him You can be happy with anything or anyone But there is a love that's greater than any One that is known and cherished by many A love that only he can employ A love that was put on this earth for all to enjoy Eternal happiness isn't materialistic, its much, much, more Its knowing in your afterlife you can walk throught heaven's door And sit side by side holding a conversation with sweet angels and be okay While reuniting with loved ones lost along the way Its knowing you're free and rid of all sin And the only way to love is to let him in People say that making friends is hard And loving isn't easy when it doesn't come from within Eternal happiness can be achieved once you've found God And know that it is in him that you have a true friend So let's pose this question once again What's your eternal happiness and does it come from within?
