Dear Young Christian:
This week I want to take up some scriptures that bring before us the subject of things that should occupy a Christian on a daily basis. Christianity isn’t just a once-a-week or a once-in-awhile thing. It is something that we should live out in a practical way every day of our life.
In connection with this subject I have enjoyed what it says of the Lord Jesus regarding His relationship with God His Father. We read, “I was daily His delight” (Proverbs 8:30). From a past eternity He was the daily delight and joy of His Father, and the heavens could open up while He was here on earth, and the voice of the Father confirm, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17).
We too should find our daily delight in the one who delights the Father. David expressed it when he said, “Delight thyself also in the Lord, and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart” (Psalm 37:4). Make sure you enjoy something of the person of Christ everyday this week.
Your Christian Friend,
Jim Hyland
