[[Yes, in the Lord - not in the satisfaction of one’s self-centered immediate-gratification whims. ]]
See my above post- God is NOT opposed to self gratification- saying that He is is putting a needless guilt trip on people- It is immensely gratify to rejoice in the Lord- and there is nothing shameful about indulging in that gratification, nor is there anything shameful in gratify oneself in things like vacations, rewards for work well done, or whatever- It is gratifying to work hard, knowing that God has allowed one the physical capabilities ot do so- on and on it goes- There’s no need for guilting people who enjoy life and are thankful for their many blessings- Despite their circumstances-
Who guilted those people?
