Delight yourself in the Lord!

Every day I receive a daily devotion and this week the subject has been about delight. This is the devotion: God has many delights: The delight that comes from a pure and simple act of love. Greater than that, the delight that comes from an act of beauty sparkling in the darkness. Greater than that, the delight when a child who has run away returns with all her heart. Delight is that from which all things come. Isn’t this so beautiful. You see the writer is stating all the things that bring delight to the Father. He receives delight from all that we do with a pure heart, when we perform an act of love in the darkness of the world, and when we return home to the Father. But the last line is tricky – you see all things come from the Father, so even those things that we do out of our pure heart, or causing an act of beauty, or even when we turn to the Father, really are from Him. All delight, all things wonderful, all things beautiful – come from Him. God receives delight when we do things, and yet all that we do that is good is from Him. God is so good; He gives us the tools to do so many blessings all around. Look for them!
