Delighting our King
"The Lords delight is in those who honor him, those who put their hope in his unfailing love"
Psalm 147.11
Just think - The Lord is delighted when I put my hope in His unfailing love. He is honored when I rest in His unconditional, unfailing, unchanging Love.
When I put my hope in His unfailing love, I am not struggling to stay on God's good side. I am not condemning myself for not measuring up to His expectations of me. I have learned that my Father's love for me has nothing to do with how good I am, but has everything to do with how good He is!!! That fact alone motivates me to be about my Father's business.
If I want to honor the Lord, I stop focusing on myself and instead rest in His unfailing Love. Then my King is delighted with His Princess!!
"Father, I thank you for your unfailing love for me. I thank you that I can put my hope and my dreams in you. The thought of you being delighted in me almost overwhelms me. I pray your blessings and your rest on each person reading this post today. In Jesus unfailing name, I pray" Amen
