At bible study the other morning the leader asked a question
about what we want now that we have finished the book of James. And that made
me think, ‘what do I actually want? From life, from God, from myself?’ Thinking
about it I realized, I want a lot of things!
But today I decided I’m not just going to want them anymore,
I’m going to get them, I’m going to be them.
What I want is to spread some HOPE. I know what it’s like to
be without hope, and I also know what it’s like to be handed hope, and suddenly
the world is full of color again. I want to spread some light in the very
darkest places, to the most hopeless, lost, heartbroken people.
I want to stop just reading the bible and actually start
doing what it says! I want those words written on my heart, not just in my
journal.
I want Jesus to use me, powerfully.
I want to be all of the things that the book of James talks
about
I want to be kind, merciful, honest, forgiving, gentle,
humble and patient
I want to be someone who is never afraid to speak the
truth…in love.
I want to be a woman of integrity.
That’s what I want.
I want to wake up in the morning already expecting God to do
the impossible.
I want to be a blessing and I want to count mine every
minute of the day.
I want to love the least, like He loves me.
I want to count it ALL joy. Everything. All the good, all
the bad, and everything in between.
I want to start living the life that God has planned for me.
I want to boldly share how God has radically, literally
saved my life. I want to be a light for all to see my wonderful Father.
And I know he is so faithful, never failing, all powerful.
I believe
What do YOU want from God?
