Lailah Gifty AkitaIf we delight in God, He shall give us our hearts desires.
About This Quote
The saying “if we delight in God, He shall give us our hearts desires” means that if you want something you have to be willing to do whatever it takes to get it. What people are generally talking about are things like money, fame, love, or happiness. Some believe that what they desire is too high for them to achieve, but instead of giving up on their dreams, they choose determination. If you are not willing to do whatever it takes to get what you want then it doesn’t exist.
For example, the world is full of people who want more money and fame but refuse to work for it. They think they are entitled to it because they are good looking or talented. The idea of giving up on one’s dreams because they are too lofty is absurd.
