Psalm 37:23

“The steps of the godly are directed by the Lord. He delights in every detail of their lives.”

Psalm 37:23

In April Dave and I celebrated our 25 wedding anniversary. We decided to celebrate our anniversary in the fall as we both love seeing fall foliage. Dave has always wanted to go to the east coast. He also wanted to eat fresh seafood on the shore. Last week we went to Maine. We visited York, Maine as well as Ogunquit, Maine. Both of these places were absolutely amazingly beautiful. We ate at two restaurants on the coast, one restaurant in York and another one in Ogunquit that we went to twice. At both of these restaurants were able to sit out on the patio so we could see the ocean while we ate. When we were at Ogunquit we went on a two mile walk along the coast. God’s glory was all around. When we got back to the beginning of the trail we ate on the deck at the restaurant along the shore. We enjoyed a seafood trio for our supper. It was a trio of halibut, stuffed shrimp, and scallops. Everything was delicious. When we looked down at the number on our table it said that we were sitting at table 89. We were married in 89. It made us feel like we were definitely supposed to be at that table, at that sight, at that particular point of time. God’s Word says that “The steps of the godly are directed by the Lord. He delights in every detail of their lives” (Psalm 37:23). God is so good. He shows us that He is with us. He blesses us above all we could ask, dream, or think. He delights in those whose hearts wholeheartedly follow the Lord, trust in Him at all times, and does the will of the Father. May our hearts continue to wholeheartedly follow the Lord, trust in Him at all times, and do the will of the Father. When we do … He will continue to delight Himself in every detail of our lives.

Father, we thank You for making our steps to be directed by You. We thank You for delighting Yourself in every detail of our lives. You are so good. You bless us above all we could ask, dream, or think. May our hearts continue to wholeheartedly follow You, trust in You at all times, and do Your will.  In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
