Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. — Psalm 37:4 KJV

Bible Verse Reflection
When man’s will is in line with the will of God in the way that was planned from the beginning, the things that are pleasing to God will in turn be the delight of our own hearts. When we take pleasure in the Lord and revel with the pursuits that lie the most precious in God’s heart, we will see that they are the delight of our hearts – and we’ll be able to be spiritually appraised of all things and declare, like Paul that we are in union with Him and are a part of Christ.
My Prayer
Heavenly Father, forgive me for all the instances where I’ve indulged in wrong actions. Stop me from worrying about anything in this ever chaotic world. Help me keep my eyes of my heart focused on Jesus and to enjoy myself in the works of God. My thoughts should be aligned with the thoughts of Your mind. This I pray in Jesus name. Amen.
