delight.


Delight.

"Delight yourself also in the Lord and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him and He shall bring it to pass ...Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him ..."
Psalm 37:4-5, 7

I love when words make you feel the very thing they define. Delight ...it just makes you feel delightfully pleasant! This same feeling overwhelmed me today as I experienced delight in the sweetly simple that blesses my life and the rich promises from God's word. More and more the Lord has been showing me that in my passionate pursuit after His will and plan for my life comes wonderful blessing.

The more I delight in making Him known and real in my life, the more the Lord pours out His goodness. The more I seek to make my life reflect what would make Him glorified, the more I find joy and reward. He longs to bless His kids, He wants nothing but the best for them and when it comes to gift giving, the Lord is no joke!

So I wait ...patient, committed, obedient, excited, focused, and humbled, as He works to bring out the very things I have desired and dreamed of and hoped for. I know it will be perfect. I know He will make it custom fit for me. I know that I will learn so much from the experience of allowing the Lord to make His way perfect in my life ...and so I wait.
