Delight!

"Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." (Psalm 37:4)

My husband and I have discovered a new restaurant that we consider our favorite for this season. We randomly chose this location for a dinner date and found how much we loved it. As we surveyed the menu, we purposed in our minds to try everything on the menu at least once. Of course that can't be done unless we return time after time again to experiment with the wonderful menu choices. That is the only way we can delight in that restaurant.

When you delight in something, you express a high degree of gratification. You experiment, enjoy and get to know "that thing" for yourself. So, that is our main objective. We plan to delight in every menu option that is available to us. Honestly, if we can do that for a restaurant, how much more can we show that same enthusiasm for the Lord? Do you find yourself delighting in the Lord everyday? Do you taste and see His goodness? Do you get excited when you think of His love for you and the ultimate sacrifice He made on the cross? Do you find extreme satisfaction from knowing who He is?

Well, that's what it is all about! Don't let this day go by without delighting yourself in the Lord. The Bible already promises you that He will give you the desires of your heart if you delight in Him!
