DELIGHT IN THE LORD
Regardless of
things in my past (the good things, as well as the follies of yesteryear), I
love the idea that today – that each and every day is a new day! I’ve recently
learned of a new perspective, a new ‘life mantra’ if you will. One that I am learning
and yearning to employ in my life with the dawn of each new day. As a tool for self-governing
and self-evaluating, for self-judgment
of my thoughts, of my words and of my decisions… for my deeds, for my
relationships and for my personal discipleship – to preface each day and begin every
endeavor with these personal queries: “Will it delight the Lord? (Psalms 1:2,
Jeremiah 9:24); Is the Lord delighted in me? (Numbers 14:8); Am I delighting
myself in the Lord? (Psalms 37:4, Isaiah 58:13-14).” Oh, the wish of my heart
is to become a delight to Him each day, all the day long.
