"This is what the LORD says—
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
"I am the LORD your God,
who teaches you what is best for you,
who directs you in the way you should go.
If only you had paid attention to my commands,
If only you had paid attention to my commands,
your peace would have been like a river,
your righteousness like the waves of the sea."
Isaiah 48:17-18

I like how God always makes a distinction between constant peace and constant happiness. He never promises that walking with Him will making you happy and without problems every second of your life. He DOES promise that He'll give you peace with Him through the hard times He takes you through...because He is teaching, directing, and commanding us through the whole thing. There is a difference!
