We complete a task or a project and sit back taking pleasure in our accomplishment.

We get that one thing that we always wanted, not knowing how we could continue to live without it, and we take pleasure in obtaining it.

What does God take pleasure in?

He has created all things.

As I stood 11,000 feet above, atop the wonder of Mt. Hood in the beautiful state of Oregon, I looked around at the majesty of God’s creation and I took pleasure in it.

As I sat in the crispness and silence of a pre-dawn morning in the woods of Kentucky surrounded by nothing but nature and awaiting the sunrise, I took pleasure in the quietness of anticipating another awakening of God's creation  to the rays of light and warmth.

Oh the joy of taking pleasure in God’s creation recognizing Him and His greatness in it.

But, what does God take pleasure in?  The beauty, vastness and majesty of what He has created?

God’s source of pleasure is more specific.

God takes pleasure in you.

Sing to the LORD with thanksgiving; make melody to our God on the lyre! He covers the heavens with clouds; he prepares rain for the earth; he makes grass grow on the hills. He gives to the beasts their food, and to the young ravens that cry. His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the legs of a man, but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love.  (Psa 147:7-11 ESV)

Know that you are loved,
