Ultimate Happiness

I was just thinking of a song I wrote a few years back. It's just a short imperfect little song, but God; who gave me the song, inspires me with this thought. Here's the first verse and chorus: "There's a man in a country far, far away; and he wonders if he'll even get a meal today. You may think he is the saddest man there could ever be, but he'll tell you, "Jesus Christ is all I'll ever need." Jesus satisfies my longing, how could I ask for more? I am just so thankful I'm the one whom He died for! Praise His name, praise His name." Like my dad was saying last night, it seems that a lot of times poor people (especially in other countries) that literally have nothing are among the nicest, most giving people in the world. While very rich people can be very stingy. I ask myself why. That is totally the opposite of what it should be, and it's just plain illogical. I heard a missionary story of a family that saved up for... a month or so, I think, just so they could give the missionary one meal. It's humbling, really. But to be honest, even after puzzling over this for a long time, I cannot figure out why this is how it is.
