Desires of your Heart

I was recently telling a new friend about how I have been completely engulfed in Christ and how amazed I was at the blessings He has been bestowing upon me just by trusting in Him. She reminded me of a very important scripture that has proven to be very relevant in my life as of late.

 It is Psalm 37:4 which reads:

"Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart."

When she reminded me of this scripture, I was amazed by it because I never really knew the meaning of it until recently. God has given me the desires of my heart in a big way. I never wanted to get divorced, but now that it has happened, I didn't think life could go on. "What would I do now that I am completely alone?" I thought to myself. When I was filling myself with worldly things, I was trying to fill an emptiness I felt. An emptiness so unbearable I could hardly stand it. Little did I know that God could fill my cup, fill my loneliness with His love and His Spirit. I'm alone, but not alone! I am full of Christ and drained of myself and it gives you a joy that is hard to describe!! :)

I wish I could explain how I feel better than this post, but I challenge you. I challenge you to seek comfort in God. I know that there are those out there just like me, feeling alone and lost even if you try and "fake" being "great" on the outside to your friends and family. The loneliness can be so unbearable at times, so I know how you feel and I know the things you do to try and fill that loneliness. I pray that you will seek God's guidance and search your heart to let him completely in! The reward is far greater than you can even imagine!!

I still don't have internet, so I'm on sissy's computer, but I just had to share this! God is so good and His love will NEVER fail you! When people fail you, God won't! He will never leave you! What an amazing God we serve! :)

Until next time,
