Delight

I live in house with a married couple (Daniel and Kelly) who have a 7 month baby (Reagan), myself, and 7 elementary girls.

One day, we are meeting in our living room with our program manager (one of the perks of my job is that meetings happen in living rooms). During this meeting, Daniel is on the floor with Reagan who is playing on a blanket. He is just laying next to her, delighting in Reagan--smiling at her, playing with her, encouraging her to roll over, tickling her belly, just loving on her.

It was such a picture of what our Abba Daddy does for us. He delights in us.

It also reminded me to make sure I am delighting in the people the Lord has placed in my life. Do I just sit and enjoy the friends the Lord has placed in my life? Do I delight in my girls?

I know that my girls eat it up when we notice them. Their faces beam with pleasure as we brag on them and a happy gleam enters their eyes.

So this past Change of Shift meeting in my living room, reminded me that my Abba Daddy delights in me and it challenged me to delight in those the Lord has placed in my life.

Go. Enjoy your week. Delight in Him and His people.
