Proverbs 11:18-31
I want to make God happy. Proverbs 11:20 tells us that God "delights in those with integrity." I love the idea of delighting or pleasing God. That got me thinking about what delighting God means and what it should look like. So I thought to myself When in my life have I really worked at delighting someone? Well, my dating years came to mind right away (I even laughed a bit when I remembered some of the things I did). Anyway, when we're dating, we want to put our best foot forward. So we spend a lot of time focusing on and thinking about that other person and his or her likes, dislikes, happiness, wishes, you name it. If we can be that devoted in a dating relationship, how much more should we be devoted to pleasing God?
So as I go through this weekend and next week, I'm going to focus on delighting God. How about joining me? What are the things we are currently doing that bring God delight? Are there things we could add or get rid of that would delight Him? Tami W.
I will join you! :)
I am beginning the day with a morning prayer.
Well more quality time...Remember to let his word be the Focal point of our decisions...And just tell ourselves that, "today I'm Gonna Nag God, (as if it were possible), I'm Gonna consult him with every issue & decision"....Then let that turn to a daily habit, then a way of life, as in subconscious behavior. I want to reprogram my thoughts to think of The Lord, in all i do, without actually thinking about it...& i guess that starts with soaking up the Bible absorbing, enough on a daily basis to rewrite 31 years worth of worldly wisdom.
Then at the end of each day reflect and pray...Then repeat the following day
