The Lord’s Joy
Children love to play peek-a-boo. They will initiate the game and no matter how many times they pop out from behind a chair, from under a blanket, or from a flowing curtain, they laugh with delight at the joy of seeing the delight reflected on our faces as well.
Amazing that a child never tires of delighting in those little things.
Is there something you never tire of delighting in?
For me, I know that I never tire of seeing pictures or videos of my nephew and niece. The pictures make me wish I were with them and my abundant love swells to overflowing yet again.
Delight
What does it mean to delight in something? Delight usually has a sensory element—something we enjoy with one of our five senses. We delight in a delicious plate of food, a beautiful panorama in creation, a sweet-smelling flower, a well-played piece of music, or a loving touch.
But what does it mean to delight yourself in the Lord? Psalm 37:4 says, "Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart."
Can you delight yourself in something you don't take the time to appreciate?
