Delight yourself in the Lord . . .

At this time of year we are so busy preparing for the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, and I think it is good to remember while we shop for gifts, prepare Christmas cards, bake cookies, etc., that God knows the desires of our heart. “Delight yourself in the Lord; and He will give you the desires of your heart.” Psalm 37:4
