God Taking Pleasure In Us

David has done it all: a shepherd, a soldier, a singer, and a sinner.  He has been known as the Son of Jesse,  David the King, a Man After God’s Own Heart, and The Sweet Psalmist of Israel. Nearing the end of his life, he writes a final praise song. Here's a fragment.

2 Samuel 22:19-20 They prevented me in the day of my calamity: but the Lord was my stay.  He brought me forth also into a large place: he delivered me, because he delighted in me.

Those who abide in The Lord enjoy the same relationship. He will move heaven and earth to meet the needs of His child.

Imagine God taking pleasure in us. Imagine the Almighty working on our behalf; moving mountains-- meeting needs--working out obsticals just because we delight Him. That’s something worth singing about.
