Delighting in Christ



I recently finished reading, "When God Writes your Love Story", by Eric and Lisle Ludy. I found it to be both very encouraging and challenging. If you haven't read it yet, I would highly recommend it! It's a wonderful book for both guys and girls.

I was challenged to "Sing the Sweeter Song", meaning to be seeking and finding Christ as the joy of my life, because no relationship with a man will ever be able to fulfill the deepest desires of my heart (even though at times I might think he could). Sorry if I popped your bubble there. :)

On the wall of my room I hung a little painting I made with the verse written on it, "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart." Ps. 37:4
There are times when I strongly desire to be treasured by a man, so I hung that verse there to remind me that my delight should be in Christ, not in any man, or fantasy I have. My relationship with Christ is more important than a relationship with a man could ever be.
