Daddy Knows Best

3 Trust in the Lord, and do good;
dwell in the land and befriend faithfulness. 4 Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5 Commit your way to the Lord;
trust in him, and he will act.
6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.

7 Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him;
fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way,
over the man who carries out evil devices! (Psalm 37, ESV)

If I am learning anything, it is that God doesn't just change our hearts to what He wants for us and our lives--He KNOWS what we want better than we do. He alone knows the desires of our hearts. He alone knows what will and how to truly satisfy them. Delight yourself in the Lord--only THEN will you be willing and able to ACCEPT the things He has for you that will satisfy your heart's deepest and truest desires. BECAUSE it is God ALONE that our hearts desire. Therefore, HE alone can fill those desires--and lead us on that path and give us those things that HE knows will give true peace and true joy to the hearts and souls that HE created. Our deepest desires have been given to us by Him before the day we were born. Trust that "Daddy knows best". If we do, we will not--we cannot be disappointed.
