"I will give thanks to You, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all Your wonderful deeds. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I will sing the praises of Your name, O Most High."
"WHAT SWELLS UP IN YOUR HEART?"
Is it excitement about a new job?
Are you overwhelmed with joy about a new relationship?
Do you feel happiness because everything is currently going well?
These are not trick questions!
YOU SHOULD FEEL EXCITEMENT!
JOY WAS MEANT TO BE EXPRESSED!
HAPPINESS BELONGS TO THOSE WHO ARE WELL IN HEART!
But I must ask you once again;
"WHAT SWELLS UP IN YOUR HEART?"
"Jesus must take priority in your heart! Or anything else blocks your view of Him! Everything else draws your focus away from Him!
If we really focus on the events that take place in our life, we will soon realize that God is the provider of them all!
GOD PROVIDES THE NEW JOB!
GOD FORMS NEW RELATIONSHIPS!
GOD CARES FOR THE WELL BEING OF HIS CHILDREN!
BUT HE DOES NOT INTEND FOR THOSE THINGS TO BECOME THE FOCAL POINT OF OUR HEARTS!
HE PROVIDES BECAUSE IT IS IN HIS NATURE TO PROVIDE!
THIS IS "WHAT" HE DOES!
BUT THIS IS NOT "ALL" HE DESIRES!
"GOD DESIRES FOR US TO FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM!"
"HE WANTS OUR HEARTS TO BE SWOLLEN WITH GRATITUDE!"
"HE WANTS US, NOT ONLY TO KNOW THAT HE PROVIDES ALL THESE THINGS FOR US OUT OF LOVE, BUT ALSO TO TELL THE WORLD OF HIS LOVE!"
This being said, I must ask you once again;
"WHAT SWELLS UP IN YOUR HEART?"
