~My desire~

 

Today, I would like to share with you some thoughts as to what my desires are for myself. My desire today,and everyday is to do the will of my Heavenly Father. Although I sometimes fail, I am so very grateful God is always more than willing to forgive me and help me to begin anew. In these last few weeks it seems I have been having a greater desire to draw even closer in my walk with the Lord,almost to the point of a yearning more than a desire. There is a answer to this,...

If I am to draw closer to God,then I must draw myself to him,  how?  By spending time with him,reading his word,praying ,communicating with him,learning his ways,and his desires for me. Assembling myself with other believers. Also,obeying him when he speaks to me to do,or NOT to do something.....

I pray that I may have the mind of Christ...to see, to think,to feel....as he does toward myself and others.

To have a greater desire to see and help to bring souls to their place of repentance,and forgiveness though the blood of Jesus.

To be a faithful helpmeet to my husband,a better keeper of my home,a Godly example to my children and grandchildren,to show pure love and gratitude for his blessings of a family,and a home.

To do a greater service to the house of God,and to God's people,my brothers and sisters in the Lord...not just those from my local congregation,but the entire body of Christ....

Yes, I do desire to follow his ways....and with his help,I shall succeed to do so..

I am sure there shall be obstacles in my path,but I will be led by the Holy Spirit of God who will clear my way and light a lamp to guide my feet onward.......

 

~This is my DESIRE~

To God , be all glory.......,  Sis. Shelley
