Some words are more than just beautiful words of prayer or insightful words of life with God. Some words, like these words, almost immediately flow from our own hearts and are filled with yearning, with desire for all that is good, for all that is God. I must have God or even the good thing is no longer good, apart from having Him, from belonging to Him, from being in conversation with Him, from pleasing Him, there is nothing that is "good enough" to please or truly be good to us. There is not another choice. God is my portion. God can decide for me what is my lot in life, as long as I have Him and He has me. How I must strive to remember that I have an incredible inheritance, that my life is full of God and good and he truly has made me prosper (ps 1)! The interaction of our choice and God's grace and drawing us and giving us desire is beautiful and inseparable. I keep my eyes always on the Lord. He makes me secure and leads me in the path of life where there is great joy. Glory be to the God of my life, the God of refuge, the God of love!
