   [The Crosswalk Devotional]( When God Begins to Change Your Desires Â
By Emily Rose Massey "Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heartâ ([Psalm 37:4]( NKJV). When I am pulled into the temptation of complaining about my circumstances, I must ask myself some questions to gain perspective and do a serious heart assessment: if I am always seeking an escape from the discomfort or trial, am I truly satisfied in Christ alone? Am I looking to material things, people, or enjoyable experiences to find peace or joy? Am I truly content with what God has already provided for me in Christ? We know as believers, we can always find answers and direction in the Scriptures. [Psalm 37:4]( tells us to: "Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heartâ ([Psalm 37:4]( NKJV). The Hebrew word translated âdelightâ literally means to be delicate or feminine. It carries the idea of being pliable or sensitive.  In this specific context in [Psalm 37]( it means to be dependent upon God and to derive oneâs pleasure from Him.  [CONTINUE READING â](

[Classic 1994 Ice Skating Routine To 'Walk This Way' From Scott Hamilton](
Â
GodTube.com Scott Hamiltonâs 1994 ice skating routine to âWalk This Wayâ is most certainly a classic, equally as fun and entertaining to watch today as it was when performed nearly thirty years ago! Enjoy this video, and youâll understand why Mr. Scott Hamilton was ranked one of the [top eight most popular]( athletes in America just one year before in 1993. The Associated Press reported the results of a national sports study, which placed Scott far ahead of athletes like Michael Jordan, Dan Marino, and Wayne Gretzky! Pretty impressive! Scott doesnât ease into this performance. It is full of energy from the first note of Aerosmithâs boy-meets-girl hit. Sure, there are all the elements of traditional figure skating, but there is a whole lot more, too! In between the spins and jumps, Scott is shaking, gesturing to the audience, matching his moves to the musicâboth the instrumental and the lyrical pace and spirit. This songâs lyrics are fast-moving and racy, but not a moment of the performance moves slow. Check out Scottâs playful dance at 7 seconds, his guitar-mimicking moves at 38 seconds, and the hilarious sequence of âwalksâ that he begins at 60 seconds. Scott is part Olympic athlete, part comedian, and part story-teller. And, his performance is 100% genius from start to finish! The commentator observes that Scott always has his body right over his legs, which, evidently, demonstrates that he is ânever out of control.â And, just as he is lamenting that he didnât put any money on Scott on this particular evening, Scott does a backflip! He does all this while wearing a very garish 90âs costume, to boot! The performance concludes with a spin of epic proportions, a big finish, and a smile from Scott that shows he might very well know heâs just won the 1994 The Gold Figure Skating Championships. [This professional competition]( is open only to those who have already scored Olympic gold. Now 63-years-old, Scott began his professional skating career in 1984 after an abundantly successful amateur career. In the years since, he has been a commentator, appeared on multiple television shows, authored books, and worked on several charitable projects. Scott Hamilton has experienced testicular cancer and three brain tumors, the first of which stunted his growth when he was a child. Tennessee is home to Scott, his wife, and four kids. Thereâs a lot to know about this incredibly talented individual. One thing is for sure, he knows how to âbring itâ on the ice! âA happy heart makes the face cheerful, but heartache crushes the spirit.â [Proverbs 15:13](  [WATCH NOW â](
