When you search for God whole-heartedly, your heart is filled with joy and gladness. Why do you think that is? Because you find rescue in needy times. When you are in need of rescue, seeking the Savior is the only real solution. And when you find Him, He starts the sanctification process by filling your heart with joy. This joy is peace and rest in knowing you are secure in His hands. It’s relief from discomfort. It’s the beginning of the process of making you whole, spiritually speaking. It’s completing the puzzle by finding that one last missing piece. It’s adding that one ingredient to the recipe that makes your finished product so much more savory. God completes us. No one else can. That’s the joy and gladness talked about here. Do you have it? If not, seek Him out today. He will not disappoint.
16 But may all who search for You be filled with joy and gladness in You. May those who love Your salvation repeatedly shout, “The Lord is great!”
Psalms 40:16
