Delight yourself in the Lord

"Delight yourself in the Lord
    and he will give you the
      desires of your heart."
                Psalm 37:4

I have found that the more I delight in him, the more of himself he gives me. It's a transformation process; as you draw near to God and stop thinking about what he can do for you, but instead focus on him in worship and adoration, he will change your heart. You will no longer desire the things and the details of this world, nor will you be concerned about them. God owns everything. It all belongs to him and he will do with all of it what he wants. As you leave those things behind, he will give you freedom, freedom from the worry and stress that those things bring and freedom from the selfishness that they promote. You will have a new life overflowing with joy because all you want is with you always.

"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."  Romans 12:2

I've heard that as you begin to change your thinking, your brain takes on physical changes. Even just the decision to start thinking more positively or whatever will cause dendrites and other crazy stuff to grow. So... I think as we transform our minds, we begin to take on physical characteristics of Jesus. How cool is that!?
