Want to make God rejoice?

Proverbs 23:15-16

15 My son, if your heart is wise,

My heart will rejoice—indeed, I myself;

16 Yes, my inmost being will rejoice

When your lips speak right things. 



I pray this morning that it is our desire to serve God in a way that it makes Him rejoice. One way to do that is to make sure our hearts are wise. How do we do that? By growing in our relationship with Him. Prayer, Bible study, church, and Sunday school are ways to become wise. Also choosing godly folks to hang around and to learn from will make your heart wise. When we do these things and then apply them to our lives which includes speaking right things in a kind and loving way, we then make God rejoice at our faithfulness to Him! Knowing that makes me want to be faithful. Just like bringing a smile to your fathers face, how much more when we bring it to our heavenly Fathers face????



Be wise my friends!



Tom
