Psalm 149:4: "For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with salvation."
It is a pleasant thought to consider that God delights in His children and that His delight radiates blessing to those in whom He takes pleasure. Additionally, those who are His people have been adorned with salvation as a by-product, so to speak, of His relationship. This is to say that we, Christians, are blessed because God is pleased to bless us. In a sense, then, our greatest joy is a reflection of His great joy in us. Let us always keep this before us!
