Psalm 119:35 says, "Make me walk in the path of Thy commandments, For I delight in it."
The definition of "delight" is the first paragraph of this post. The Greek doesn't include the tractor comment but it implies the same meaning. The author of this Psalm found pleasure from walking in God's path. He was drawn to it, he wanted to do anything to be involved in what God was involved in. He found "delight in it"... in verse 40 he say's "I long for Thy precepts". Also in verses 33-34 he expresses his desire to "keep it with all his heart".
Do you seek God's presence? Do you want to be around Him? Do you want Him to hang out with you? Do you desire for God to turn your eyes away from anything that takes them off of Him (119:37)? Do you grieve the fact that your heart wanders away and ask God to turn it back to Him... do you even notice when your heart wanders off?
Do you simply fight and struggle to be with Him?
If not, why not... has the creature become more appealing than the Creator?
-examine yourself, get to know your heart and don't let it deceive you.
