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

Delighting is love in the form of gratitude; it is rejoicing at the greatness of the gift. This greatness can only be fathomed by giving away all of ourselves, for any self left within shrinks our capacity to receive the gift. To the extent that we give of self, we will receive. When we truly delight in the Lord we give ourselves entirely away, removing all obstacles to receiving His love. There is nothing left in the way of His union with us, and as our Eternal Lover, He will always unite with us when we remove the barriers! Every desire or void we have is ultimately a desire for union with our Lover; once we are united to Him, the desires of our hearts have been satisfied. Thus our Lord's promise will never fail: Take delight in Me and I will give you the desires of your heart.
