fruitful

i want to be
like a date palm
planted by a water spring,
fruitful
even in drought.

so i will love God's law
and meditate
on it
day and night.

i will avoid
following ungodly counsel
and going sinful ways
and resting in scornful thoughts.

oh, Lord,
please grant me
this desire.

thank you.

These are the desires He surely does grant?!

To seek obedience to Him above any other gain must make His heart delight!

Those who love me will obey my commnads - if your cry and prayer is to do obey with all your might(and His) and be changed... surely He sees this as an act of such love <3
