How To Delight In The Lord and Your Spouse

Marriage After God

About this episode

What does it mean to delight in the Lord, and in your spouse? Delight means a high degree of gratification or pleasure: joy. God is not looking for a dry, gray relationship with us, and neither is our spouse. In this episode Aaron and Jennifer Smith break down delight as an active verb in three parts: delighting in the Lord and His Word (Psalm 37:4, read as God giving us His desires), delighting in your spouse, and delighting in your children. They share stargazing memories, from the Christmas Star and a blood moon to Starlink and the 2017 eclipse, and tie delight to intentional attention rather than simply existing next to someone. A bonus fourth point: the Lord delights in us.
