The desires of her heart

Take delight in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4

This is Athena she is 7. She decided she wanted to take her laundry outside and hand wash her clothes and hang them on a close line using close pins to dry. If you ever get a chance to chat with her about what she wants to do when shes older she will tell you about the many children she wants to adopt. She"ll speak of the farm she wants to live on and how she cant wait to home school her kids and take them on many field trips around the world to teach them about History. As I was watching Athena I began to think about Psalm 37:4 and how the Lord has placed those desires in her heart as He knit her together in my womb and as she seeks after Him those desires will begin to grow and grow and develop into the way she will serve the Lord. Isn't the Lord so amazing! The same is for you and I. We are created in His image with different desires all for His glory and our good. Our true joy and contentment will come in our lives when we seek after Him and those desires begin to unfold. Seek after Jesus my friend! :-)
