Delighted!

Delight thyself also in the Lord and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

I heard this verse so many times as a child. Recently, it has become very real to me.  At our revival a couple of weeks ago.  The Lord spoke so clearly to me and drew me near to Him.  I had been longing to be sanctified for a long time.  He brought such a peace within my heart.  Yes, I still have bad days, but I strive and long to live in the presence and peace of God daily.

After our revival a few of us ladies have began having a daily devotional chat.  We read our devotions and then share with the group through facebook messaging what the Lord has shown us for the day.  I have to admit I was not very good in doing my devotions until my encounter during revival.  I can't wait to get up and see what God has for me each day.  It has been such a blessing to see what he is giving each one in our group and how amazing it is that most of us seem to follow along the same subjects or help even though we are reading different passages.

There have been a couple of very anxious days the past few weeks.  With Lee having a mini stroke then just finding out last week that he has a small hole in his heart.  My father in law having extremely bad back issues.  Me having issues with my gallbladder and a couple other things and then there is Pam my "adopted niece" who I love very much and is having such a struggle with leaving my sister and her family to go "home" on the weekends.

God is so merciful.  I pray daily for these things but was just reminded on Wed night prayer meeting that we are not to worry but to pray.  So now when I start to worry I just turn my heart and thoughts to God.  He is the real joy giver.

I have a few glitches to fix with my blog it is a work in progress.  I asked the Lord to give me a title as I was trying to get away from posting more personal things on my soccermombychoice blog.  He gave me this title one day at work.  God's Unspeakable Joy.  God is not always audible.  He doesn't talk right out loud to us (He could if He wanted).  But He IS speaking to us... Are we listening?
