Deuteronomy 30:6-9 (The Message) GOD, your God, will cut away the thick calluses on your heart and your children's hearts, freeing you to love GOD, your God, with your whole heart and soul and live, really live. GOD, your God, will put all these curses on your enemies who hated you and were out to get you. And you will make a new start, listening obediently to GOD, keeping all his commandments that I'm commanding you today. GOD, your God, will outdo himself in making things go well for you: you'll have babies, get calves, grow crops, and enjoy an all-around good life. Yes, GOD will start enjoying you again, making things go well for you just as he enjoyed doing it for your ancestors.
It is awesome to think that God would enjoy me. My kids can bring me great joy but if they can bring joy they can also bring sorrow, breaking my heart. I know that I can bring sorrow to God’s heart but my hope is to bring Him joy. Pleasing Him is my desire.
Dear Lord,
Show me how to bring You joy, bind me to Your will, let it be my will. Help me to know Your heart. Lord, thank You for the opportunity to bring You joy, use me. I love You, in Jesus Name, amen.
Love and God Bless,
Cindy Irwin
