"I delight to do your will, O my God.
Your law is within my heart."  Psalm40:8

I remember many times God promised us he would write his laws in our hearts. For me, this is the way to obey him. He changes our hearts to love what he loves. He gives us new desires to replace the evil ones. He makes us able to delight in him.

Reminds me of an aid to discernment that I use with people who come to me for spiritual direction, i.e. I ask "What brings you joy?" To be and do in harmony with God brings us delight, as you have said. Christ came that our joy may be complete.

I like what you ask people, Clarence. Yes, He brings us a joy unlike any other.
