“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24 (KJV)
We were created to seek pleasure. This is not sin. When man was created sinless in the Garden of Eden, he sought pleasure. That’s how God created him.
God wants us to have pleasure. He knows that our highest and best pleasure will be found in our fellowship with Him, our relationship with Him.
Some may see this view of being hedonistic, i.e. devoted to the pursuit of pleasure. Such as a statement like ‘he lives such a hedonistic lifestyle’. But it depends on our definition of pleasure. If we know that our greatest pleasure will be found in God, then our pursuit of God is the pursuit of pleasure.
It’s only sin when we seek pleasure in the wrong ways, outside of God’s ways.
Let’s seek God – let’s seek joy.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. – Galatians 5:22-23
