Who are the happiest people in the world?
Winners? Sounds about right, doesn’t it. That’s why we invest so much in team sports; winning the game makes us happy. That’s why children fight and bicker; beating little sis makes us happy. That’s why husbands and wives shout at each other; winning the argument makes us happy That’s why we cut up other drivers; getting in front makes us happy. That’s why we trample over others on route to the top; winning promotion makes us happy Winners are happy! Aren’t they? They aren’t! They’re miserable (after the initial victory rush). And the more they win, the more miserable they become. Anyone disagree? So who are the happiest people in the world? Servants. Servants enjoy seeing others win. Servants enjoy being second; they are even happier when last. They not only preach servant-hood. They do it. Jesus served with a towel and water, called others to copy his example, and said: If you know these things, happy are you if you do them (John 13:14-17).-
