Trust the Lord with your Heart's Desires. Today I want to encourage you to trust the Lord with everything you have going on in your life. When we give Him the opportunity to act and help us He does. I would like to share this devotional that reminds us that God will give us the desires of our hearts when we trust Him.

God Gives us the Desires of Our Hearts
# 303

Psalm 37:4-5 (NLT)

Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.

God places desires in our hearts. When we delight in Him (take time to be with Him, spend time in His presence, and fellowship with Him), He will give us those desires. When we commit ourselves to do everything unto the Lord, He will help us achieve our goals. In other words, when we spend time with Him, we give Him an opportunity to change us, to exchange old desires with new ones. Therefore, when we desire what He put in our hearts, He will help us achieve those desires because He put them there in the first place.

Are you spending enough time with the Lord to give Him the opportunity to place those desires in your heart? What kind of job do you desire to have? Are you in the industry you desire to be?
