Giving God Pleasure?

There is a little phrase in our reading today (John 8:21-38) that just thrills me. Jesus says,"The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases him." Can you get over the fact that we can actually give our Precious Lord pleasure and please Him? It just bowls me over!
In the Message this verse says,"The One who sent me stays with me. He doesn't abandon me. He sees how much joy I take in pleasing him." It sure gives me joy to think that my actions can give delight to the Lover of my soul. I'm thinking of the Bridegroom just delighting in having His bride by His side as they partner together in Kingdom work.
How beautiful and humble is our God. It's amazing grace that we give Him pleasure.
