"Delight yourself in the Lord and He will grant your heart's desires". Some of the little ones at Sunday school were sitting on my lap with a little bible and I was reading stories to them. I shared with them my favorite scripture and as I recited it and told them it was Psalm 37: 4 their eyes were big as saucers. I asked them, "Isn't that a wonderful thing?". I then asked if they had a favorite scripture and my one tot took her little fingers and stopped in the book of Matthew and I read to her the story of how Jesus healed the leper. She told me that was hers. My other tot on my right knee took her fingers to 1 Corinthians and I read to them the infamous wedding vow scriptures from this book. That was hers. They were into it and truly seemed to understand .... or so I thought .... until J said, "Miss Cindy what's a scripture?" OK maybe not just yet. But I helped plant a seed in their little hearts and nothing comes back void. As for this big girl....well I know God grants your heart's desire because today is the day my backyard pool opens and it has been my desire my whole life to have my very own private pool and I am blessed to say for 6 summers now .... I do. God is so faithful!
Psalm 37: 4-5
