Thanks.

Now that I have your attention let me continue just a bit...

Actually, to be correct, the term "happy" is a secular, non-believer word. It comes from the idea of luck, happenstance. With those who trust God, nothing is amiss or left to chance. That's why in some texts it's translated as joy. I think that is a much more appropriate word, but since it isn't really a concept most of us engage, I used "happy."

ttyl!
