Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
This Psalm is one of my favorites. To delight is a very energizing thought and emotion. It does not say - exhaust yourself, strain yourself, worry yourself, or condemn yourself; it says delight yourself in the LORD. To delight means to find enjoyment, pleasure in and experience joy. What is so refreshing about God’s grace is that it creates a genuine delight for the Lord and that changes the intent of our desires. Today let His Grace penetrate your soul and you will find yourself delighting in the Lord. If you will allow this grace of delighting yourself in the LORD to be who you are each new day, things will happen in your journey that will be overwhelming with joy. Those around you will experience that life that is called eternal. Smiling and refreshment will be just who you are and each day will seem like you opened a new gift. Enjoy! |
