Pleasure

The Lord enjoys people who worship him and trust in his faithful love. ~ Psalm 147:11 (ERV)

(Paul wrote:) All I want is to know Christ and the power that raised him from death. I want to share in his sufferings and be like him even in his death. ~ Philippians 3:10a (ERV)

Lord, it almost makes me giddy when I hear that you enjoy us. To give you pleasure gives me joy. And that joy drives me to know you more and to become more like you. Forgive me for the times that I seek pleasure in ways that are contrary to you. Use your resurrection power to keep me in such a worshipful state of mind and heart that I'm fully trusting in your faithful love. Amen.
