Feeling of Happiness

Morning, 7 AM, Zhejiang University basketball court, foggy.

Half an hour of basketball has passed, and the vast court is almost entirely mine to enjoy. The fog can’t block the sun’s light. Despite just a small white dot in the misty sky, it’s clear—that’s the sun.

Exercise brings a stretch to the body, deep breaths, such fresh air. In the moment of running for a layup, I suddenly felt a kind of happiness, an unexpected joy filled my heart. At that moment, I was completely satisfied with my life; this satisfaction didn’t come from material things or the outside world but from the feeling of being protected and assured by God. Although there’s not much materially, I have no reason to worry.

A couple of days ago, Friday and Saturday, I attended a praise and worship study in Shanghai, and I learned a lot. Becoming a worshipper is a lifelong journey.
