Hey y’all!
I have a very thankful heart today for all that God has done for me. A while back I heard a word from Him and it’s been dancing in my head ever since. I asked the Lord how He could love me and He said “You are my daughter and I delight in you”. Isn’t that just incredible, to have someone delight in you? It fills my heart up to over flowing and goes right up to my nose and down to my toes. Delight has always been one of my favorite words because it means utter joy, its complete and absolute and with it often comes peace and assurance.
Psalms 37:4 says “Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” As a little kid, 5 or 6 years old, my favorite CD had a song with this verse in it and I would sing it on repeat. Delight is how I’ve felt about the Lord ever since then but it never occurred to me that He felt the same way about me. I’ve always known that He loved me, but this new word has brought a whole new level of tenderness to our relationship.
I challenge you to get in a quiet place and ask God something about how he feels about you or how he sees you. Then wait in the silence for him to answer, I’ll bet you’ll be surprised by what he has to say, I know I was.
Thanks for reading and supporting me, both with your prayers and financially. Feel free to subscribe and enjoy some time with the Lord today, you won’t regret it!

“Jerusalem will be told: “Don’t be afraid. Dear Zion, don’t despair. Your GOD is present among you, a strong Warrior there to save you. Happy to have you back, he’ll calm you with his love and delight you with his songs.”
??Zephaniah? ?3:16-17? ?MSG??
Father delights in us, and even sings over us!
How cool is that!
I love that verse, I can’t read it without smiling. Thank you so much for sharing!
