OH, HOW I LOVE JESUS
Today's reading:  Psalm 18-20

"...he rescued me because he delights in me."  Psalm 18:19 NLT

Oh, how I need these words this morning!

No one likes to be around me all the time--especially me. 

I'm opinionated, loud, bossy, rude and overzealous.  I tend, and that's being very generous, to want my way.  I like my plans to go as I've planned them.  I prefer comfort and ease.

I'm a spoiled brat.  A princess with an attitude.  A child who tends to believe she was born with entitlement.

So to think He delights in me is amazing.

To know that He saved me from my enemies, from the pits of hell, from an eternity without Him and from myself some days, causes me to shake my head in wonder at the depths of His love for me.

"...I stood there saved--surprised to be loved!"  Psalm 18:19 MSG
