I think I have made the Christian walk feel so serious that it begins to feel like something I have to do instead of something I get to delight in. Sometimes I even feel like God does not delight in me. But I want to remind myself, and anyone reading this, that delight is actually a discipline. And the discipline of delight brings us more in line with God’s design for our lives. When we engage in intentional rhythms, when we do the hard things now so we can enjoy the fruit later, and when we obey God’s commands, there is actually so much freedom in that.
