“Delightful!”

Psalm 37: 23: “The steps of a man are established by the Lord; and He delights in his way.” Obviously, the Lord wants us to delight in His way. But look at the capital letters in this verse, and see who is delighting in whom. Amazing! He delights in our way, as He establishes (makes firm) our footsteps. How can we make that happen? He already told us in verse five: commit our way to the Lord. In other words, adopt His ways, and make them our own. That done, no wonder our ways would be a delight to God, they actually came from Him!
