Psalm 37:4 states "Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart."  I was reading this verse today and I was focusing on the desire of my heart with weddings, engagements, and marriage.  I was thinking why these desires were not being fulfilled in my life.  However, God spoke to me instantly saying Heather for the past 7 years you have been telling me the desire of your heart is to help the poor, serve Me and others, love on kids and people who have never been loved.  Why are you thinking I don't have the plan?  Often times our minds get so wrapped up in the world and what is going on around us the we forget to fix our eyes on what is unseen rather than seen (2 Cor 4:16), to trust in the One who is the maker and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2), and to focus on what is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and admirable (Phil 4:8). God will meet all the desires in our hearts.  We have to trust in His perfect plan and timing, not our own!  I am beyond that He is in control and I am not; however, I must decrease so He may increase!
