Psalms 37:3-5 3Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. 5Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

Praise the Lord! What an awesome life we have in Jesus. We are truly blessed! I am thankful to the Lord for all things in Him – He is blessing us! Stand in Him and remain strong.  

During my week last week, as I stated yesterday the Lord kept bringing different scriptures repeatedly to my mind and heart – in either just reading something, speaking to someone else about something and the scripture is given/mentioned, in my prayers, and in a few other ways – God really wanted me to understand it so I started seeking His words on it. 

I was not allowing myself to be happy. . . I know His word says I can be happy but since I was used to not being happy for so long – being happy all the time was a fight for me. I have to fight the ugliness off and focus on the word – I was not understanding what I really had to do until I was talking with a couple of sisters and the Lord had me speak to them and in turn speaking to myself.

Psalms 37:3-5 3Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. 4Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. 5Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

I had no problem with doing good but trusting the Lord – I was shaky on that as I trust Him in some things but not all things – I thought – I did but man coming to see I do not trust Him completely in all things – okay let us see – trust in the Lord in ALL aspects means to turn my entire being over to the Lord – yet what about that. . .  

Hummmmm….Delight thyself ALSO in the Lord – delight myself in the Lord – hummm it goes hand in hand with trust in the Lord for to trust Him – I have to delight myself in Him so I can turn it over to Him. Yet there is one more point – skip the desires first. . .  

Commit thy way unto the Lord, trust also in Him. . . okay trust again – trust in Him, delight in Him, commit to Him and trust Him again. Okay Lord – I am getting it.  

If I do all that – I get the desires of my heart – LOL Okay that sounds like some kind of bribe but no bribe that I know of is so costly Lord.  

If I do all that you said, people are going to look at me like I am on drugs, my son is still going to get picked on, all kinds of things are going to attempt to happen in my life that I am going to think I can not handle. I am going to lose friends, I am going to lose family, I am going to have moments of wonder, I am going to have maybe even some moments of doubt – but Lord – how – how can I do all this in you? 

My favorite verses jump out at me. . .  

Matthew 6:33But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Proverbs 3:5-7 5Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  6In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

Okay Lord – I get it – yes again you are telling me to trust you – stop thinking in my mind because your ways are not my ways – so you do not think as I think and that is an awesome thing.  

I can stay happy and content in my life because I trust in Jesus – it is not a sin to be happy – it is not a pain to be in Him – it is a blessing in Jesus. I am thankful to know that in the Lord I am blessed! I can be happy in Jesus – it is not a sin to be happy in Him – He wants us to be happy in Him and to be a blessing in this life! 

Awwww…the realization of the third verse that keeps me happy in Jesus, that is tomorrow!
