Real Things

Wisdom and joy and physical health.

True wisdom is not what you get from books or from practical experience, but true wisdom is knowing the plan of God and knowing your state within that plan.

Joy is not happiness or pleasure. Happiness and pleasure are contingent on temporal, fleeting things. Joy comes from being in the presence of God. Joy is a perpetual fountain.

Physical health is a quiet, ongoing goal to enable us to function at our best relative to God's providence in our lives.

True wisdom, joy, and physical health can all develop and increase. Each is full of meaning and practical common-sense.

Worldly survival, human contact, and pro-creation are obviously real too. Though true wisdom and joy will become part of your glorified body.
