Life as a Pastor's Wife

Delight yourself in the Lord and He WILL give you the desires of your heart. Psalms 37:4

How many times have we thought as a woman... "If Only..."

If only I was 10 pounds skinnier... I would be happy.
If only my house would stay clean... things would be perfect.
If only my kids would behave... I would have peace.
If only my husband would appreciate me more... things would be different.

What if we thought... If Only I could show the Lord more, how much I loved him... hmmm interesting thought? What if we thought--If only the world knew how much HE loves us! How would our lives be differnt, if we shifted the focus of off us and on to HIS GLORY

Oh how I am humbled at his goodness! Oh, how HE truly love us! All he wants in return is our love of HIM. Jesus asked Peter, "Do you love me?" The Son of man questioned what God wants to hear from our hearts... that we love and delight in the one who created us! Tell the creator of heavens and earth how much you love HIM today, delight yourself in HIM, and I know... you will never be the same again.

Esther
