DELIGHT
But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. (Psalm 1:2 NKJV)
What do we get excited about, a movie, a book, TV show or party, the object of our affection often is the source of our happiness. A mother proclaimed "that child is the joy of my life," did she mean she had no other joy, no, however the child consumed most of her thoughts.
The thing that occupies our thoughts is the center of our attention, for the servant of Jesus Christ, He is the new passion of life. Why, He transforms the believer from the inside, God becomes the delight of the Christian. The object
Of our affection becomes our study, we move passionately in the sphere of that influence. Like the mother and child so is God for His creation, is it really a surprise, that the created thing loves it's maker?
Heavenly Father in You alone we exist there is no other, will you give us a passion for You over every other? May our every thought be of pleasing You. Amen
