A God Who Delights in Us!

Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4

I feel like God, being our perfect Papa in Heaven, is saying that when we delight in Him, He delights in us. So what brings Him delight? Just as any good father, he looks with pride on His kids, His Creation, when we follow the dreams He has placed in us; when we are thankful and full of joy for the blessings we have - not worried about what has not happened yet; and when we are faithful, trusting Him in everything. I bless you (and me) to enter into this realm of the heart and spirit where we can live always under the Father's delight, joyfully receiving all He has for us - every desire of our heart!

Remember that God has your picture on His refrigerator. You are His favorite. He loves you with an everlasting love. He thought of you before he created the world. He knows you – really knows you. What is the desire in your heart? What have you been praying for? He wants to give it to you. Keep hoping and praying!
