Verse for the Day
Delight yourself in the LORD
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
~Psalm 37:4

To me this is one of the most misinterpreted verses in my life. When I read this I thought, well if I delight in the Lord he will give me what I want. But, what I have learned is that it's not about me. God knows my heart, He wove me together, He alone can transform my heart, feelings, thought patterns. I think as I see Him as my delight-not relationships, status, etc..- then He tranforms my heart to His. He is the true desire of my heart. He knows that, and when I seek him earnestly He gives that. To delight myself in Him, is to surrender completely to the notion that He is all I need. In Him I have life, love, joy, peace, and redemption.
