Have you ever thought about what you have and what you desire? Are they the same? Sometimes not.
I have been facing that battle for a few weeks now. Thinking about what I have, what if I lost it, what I could win in return. What I could win is unpredictable, what I have is at times unbearable. What I desire is beautiful. Temptation has crept its ugly head into my life for the first time.
Vaguely I share this quandary.
My purpose is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. Tis fact, it is your purpose too, whether you accept it or not. So, how can I do this? Patience, reflection, faithfulness, discipline, obedience.
Is it wrong to desire obedience? I do. I desire obedient love, tenderness, faithfulness, security, laughter and pina coladas. HA! Humor is always my friend.
Despite my dismal approach at posting, I am strong. I have tolerated, survived so much. I think at times I am weak, but I am actually turned off by sin, disgusted. That is not weakness, it is discernment.
