Delight Yourselves-Simple Delights-How I chose the name.

Why I chose the name Simple Delights:

Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness. 
Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart.Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it. Psalm 37:3-5

Trust in the LORD and do good; Dwell in the land and cultivate faithfulness.

This whole Psalm deals with those who are seeking to do God's righteousness, to give to the poor, to be an upright and just person,to contribute to other needs, clothing the naked and visiting widows and orpans.

Delight yourself in the LORD; And He will give you the desires of your heart. 
Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it.

Here is where explanation is needed...so many of us looking for encouraging Bible verses look to this one because they think that if they delight in the Lord, then He WILL GIVE THEM WHAT THEY WANT. (I am stepping on my own toes here too!)

The correct interpretation would be that if we take a whole-hearted satisfaction in Jesus, he will mold and shape our hearts so that we have proper desires.
In doing so, as we commit our path to Him He will be

faithful to establish our ways before Him. It's certainly

one thing to get what you want from God, but I think

you will agree it  is another thing to be transformed by Him...

I want my business to be a success for many reasons but first and foremost I want it to bring Him glory-I want to be able to be a witness for Him where I go and whatever I might do with this.  One of the reasons I first started this business was to try and supplement our income. 

But, the more I got into doing it and getting serious about it, like getting my business license, and buying lots of supplies and labels and containers and everything I needed to really have a business, the more I felt God speaking to me about doing other things with the money that I made, one of them being, giving a percentage to families that are trying to adopt a baby.   So many of the blogs I follow are families that are in the process of an adoption and every one of them has talked about the hardship financially that adoption is.  I just don't think this should be so and although my little business is not going to be making millions that I can give away, I also know that every penny counts (the widows mite) and my God is bigger than all of that and He can make those small amounts add up to big amounts and it all helps.


So, as soon as I start making some money (LOL) I plan on trying to contact the families from the blogs I follow to let them know that God has a gift for them.  I will keep you posted (not because I want or need a pat on the back) but to let you know what God is doing with this!


I ask you to pray about all this for me-I don't want this to ever be about me or my family.  I want God to lead and direct me on the journey and two weekends ago I had my first vendor's show and it was a flop.  I handed out lots of cards and sold two bars but I had to leave to sing at a wedding just about the time things picked up. I left a little discouraged-I had big dreams for that day and so I think God had to bring me done a few pegs and let me know this is not about me-or what I have to offer-it is about HIM and what HE has to offer.


Thanks for your kind words and prayers and name suggestions.  I loved and appreciated them all.

This is my logo for my business on my business card (all except the address) and I made a T-Shirt to wear.  I put the logo on the back-and embroidered the name on the front.
Just incase you can't tell from here that is supposed to be a honey comb because one of the ingredients is bees wax.
