Does He Rejoice in this Little Victory?

I'd like to thing You would be proud of me right now. But then, I realize... I am doing nothing of extraordinary integrity. No, I am merely accepting responsibility. And a responsibility that I have been avoiding/ignoring all week. I know that my parents would say they're proud of me for this... and I know that You are well pleased in what I am doing... but I question how great of a celebration there would be if I came to You all excited to share this little victory. This seems to insignificant standing in the midst of all Your works and all You have seen. Then again, as a father rejoices in the victories of his beloved daughter, so You rejoice in the little victories that I walk through as You brought them about. You paved the way for this day... You specifically paved the way for me to walk through this day. You, then, clearly show an interest in me, who I am, what I do, what I think, how I live my life. You show an interest in receiving my attention and affections. Glory, glory, hallelujah! This unfulfilled desire a means to knowing Christ... this unfulfilled desire, satisfied and tenderly provided by Christ through You, Espiritu Santo.

Any victory of mine is not mine but rather a manifestation of His great victory that He is revealing through His people.
