The Desires of your heart
 
I believe it is Psalms 37:4 that reads "Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart"

What are the desires your heart? Have you taken them to the Lord? Are he and your desires in your heart?

Discretion is Key!

I am always being blessed even when I don't deserve God's grace. The desires of my heart are great in number. I've asked he Lord to help me to realize the things that are important and put the other stuff behind me. As a spiritual person, I often seek the Lord and encourage each of you to do the same. God can hear your call regardless of the situation.

The Lord has always blessed me and granted me compassion and grace. As I look back over my life, I can see where if it wasn't for the Lord that was on my side I would not be here today. The desires of my heart, I'm glad God is in control is all I have to say. Because everything we think we want, God knows that we don't need, and He prevents us from becoming our own worst enemy.

I was told that the Lord gives us new desires- this scripture doesn't necessarily mean that God is Santa Claus. For instance He gives us a desire to go anywhere that His Word is presched. I know this.. He has given me so much that if He never gave me a single thing it would be cool. but of course Lord you know I desire them pearls.

Yes that is right the Lord will five you the desires of your heart Desires that agree with his word and teachings. The Lord will not give you money to buy drugs or the ability to not be caught when you cheat or do wrong

so very true...i believe in the principles that underly the law of karma which is essentially the same as what you stated...and as such believe that the desires of my heart will always become a reality given the purist intentions underly that desire...

Mark 11:23
"I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, `Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. (NIV)
