The Desires of Our Hearts

Now a friend of mine and I have been discussing things this week never really telling the other what was wrong but we seem to just be on the same page. She sent out an email this morning from Psalm 37 and I was also reading in Psalm 37 this morning too. Imagine that. Now on to what I was reading, was Psalm 37:4 which states Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart... Lets not all jump up and down because God does not just do what we want when we want him to you must read on. In the next verse, it says "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." On down in verse 7 it says "Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently on him.... Now looky here. Here is where you have to do your part. You have to commit your way unto him and have faith in what you want. I was reading online on a Christian blog where a man was telling his story and the title of the blog was actually "The Desires of your Heart".. Ok God, I am getting it now. Anyway, he was having a disagreement with a friend of his because the friend told him that he wanted a son and that God was going to give him a son because that was the desire of his heart and the guy writing the blog was like don't make it sound so simple, well his friend Charles said that I desired a beautiful wife and I got one, I desired two beautiful daughters and was blessed with them, and then he said he desired a son and God would bless im with that also. Charles died before he could have a son. Now the guy writing the blog was like now it does say that in the Bible but you have to work too and do your part. His story was a beautiful one that made me think about my own life. a passage that stuck out to me was " God does mean what he says; when you commit your ways to hom he will give you the desires of your heart, and not desires that he suddenly places in your heart, but your deepest desires, desires that have been there all along, desires you may not even know are there, desires that have been buried so deeply that only God can see them." It made me think about my own life and some things that I desire. Yes I asked God for these things but then I jsut lost my faith because it seems like after I asked for them that things got worse and not better and I was so discouraged about it but for some odd reason that verse was on my heart today and the most important part is that Yes God does want me to have the desires of my heart but I can not feel defeated every time something does not happen the way I want it to right then you know. That is not showing my faith. I think today I am going to write a letter to God and place it next to that Bible verse so he can get an understanding of where I am coming from and what I am trying to accomplish. God reaches me on the web so I like to writ so I have to write to him from time to time. Love you guys...
