Searching for the Joy - 12

De 30:9 - "And the Lord your God will make you fertile in all good things, blessing the work of your hands, and the fruit of your body, and the fruit of your cattle, and the fruit of your land: for the Lord will have joy in you, as he had in your fathers:"

This verse describes God’s joy. Not only does He want to bless us but He wants to rejoice over us and with us.

I always thought God was pretty disappointed in me. I get hope from this that He desires blessing and joy to be the hallmarks of our relationship rather than doubt and angst.

God is never disapointed in us. He knew what he was getting when he created the universe and created it anyways.

We hurt him, anger him, make him weep for us, but we can't disapoint him.
