Thought for the Week: May 10, 2012

An encouragement for this week from the book “The Heart of the Artist” by Rory Noland:


Psalm 18:19.. says, “...
He (God) delights in me”
Did you know that God delights in you? He created you and He enjoys being with you. He enjoys seeing you grow. He enjoys watching you be what He created you to be. He enjoys watching you use your talent—every time you perform or create. He delights in you.
Many artists are feelers. We relate to the world around us based on our feelings, but that’s dangerous because our feelings change. What influences our feelings most is what we believe in our minds. If we fill our minds with the truth about God’s love, we will feel more of His love, but making the connection between the brain and the heart is not always easy. Whether I feel His love or not, I can’t argue with the truth of God’s Word.

Praying that you will take in the truth from God’s Word today that you are LOVED and DELIGHTED in by God Himself. If you are feeling challenged in that area based on current circumstances, tough relationships, not-so-nice words spoken to or over you by others or even your inner “judge”, that you will be able to lean into and soak in the real truth about you....that God delights in YOU...and let that fill your mind and heart today and bring healing and joy to your soul!

Praying for you,
Stacey
