Intertwined: Our Happiness Is Tied to God's Glory
Don’t you just want to be happy? Why does it seem so hard sometimes? Perhaps we struggle to consistently live with joy because we do not consistently live with purpose. God made you for a specific reason, and until you embrace his mission for your life, the roller coaster ride of emotions will just keep going. Happiness, purpose, and freedom are available, but it all depends on intertwining your good with God’s glory. God’s plan for our joy is not tied to life events but to the life of Christ. Intertwined is meant to dust off the cobwebs of the most profound phrase ever given to humanity, “The glory of God.” When we rediscover what this means, we have rediscovered the path to everything good.

This is a wonderful reminder to all of us that we should first be seeking after the Lord and doing what is pleasing in His eyes before we worry about finding ways to make ourselves happy. Jesus loves us and longs for us to spend time with Him through prayer.
Author Mark Ballenger draws on works by both CS Lewis and John Piper to shape his teaching that it is only when we are seeking Jesus full heartedly as our true source of all that is good that we will experience a satisfaction and joy that cannon be shaken.
You will come to the end of this book and be encouraged. If you need a reminder of how to reset your priorities, or if you have never seen a biblical backing for the concepts of seeking full joy in first honoring the Lord alone, and how only good can come from it, you can't go wrong by reading "Intertwined."
