Do you ever wonder if your deepest desires and dreams matter to God?

For me, I feel like I don’t even deserve to ask God for things I desire or dream for. I think, “who am I to ask for such a thing? God, You’ve done enough for me. How dare I be so selfish?”

That’s my perspective, though. I know it’s not biblical, but it is how I’ve felt, and still feel, a lot of the time. What about you? Can you relate?

Today’s verse provides clarity to the truth that God DOES in fact care about our dreams and desires, and the Bible challenges how we think about those things. Find our key verse below and then listen to the podcast as we dive deeper into what it means for our lives and our dreams.

“Take delight in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart.” – Psalm 37:4
