Nourishment of Encouragement

Whether a "longing fulfilled" is good or bad depends upon the nature of the desire. It is "sweet to the soul" to achieve worthwhile goals, but not all goals are worth pursuing. When you set your heart on something, you may lose the ability to assess it objectively. With your desire blinding your judgement, you may proceed with an unwise relationship, a wasteful purchase, or a poorly conceived plan. Faithfulness is a virtue, but stubbornness is not.
