—Deuteronomy 5:28-33
by: Susie Sanborn.
When I was ordained as a deaconess, I was asked to give my testimony. I focused my words on Psalm 37:4: “Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart” (NIV). At that time I didn’t possess many of the things this world deems necessary for a young woman: a husband, children, a home of my own. But as I walked in all the ways that the Lord my God had commanded me (Deuteronomy 5:33), he brought these blessings into my life. God will prosper us and prolong our days when we make him our delight.
