Rejoice and BE GLAD.... happy is a temporary state...no one is or can be happy all the time, but “joy” is that underlying happiness of the heart. To say God doesn’t want us “happy” is a grave misrepresentation of Him.
Again as stated in my post, we are to be joy filled and this is produced not by circumstances but rather out of a heart of gratitude, happy is completed based on current circumstance. Again God’s primary goal for his children is not to make us “happy” but to make us Christ like. That is scriptural. I do not believe that should make our faces sour but rather it should cause us to rejoice in His amazing Grace! Blessings.
