Desires

Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart... (Psalm 37)
Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all else will be added unto you...(Matthew 6)
He will do more than you could ever dream, or imagine... (Ephesians 3:20)

And so many more. Good promises of God to have ringing through my mind.
The Lord loves his children.
What are your desires?
Do they glorify the Lord?
What is truly important?
What really matters?
Our desires change as we mature, and it's neat to see how the Lord has answered my hearts desires over the years, and has given me many more- all in all to glorify Him and build his kingdom.

Destiny. Sometimes I think some Christians forget that we are supposed to be earth shakers, and world changers. This blog is a work in progress, and I've just been using it to write down some of my scattered hearts prayers-- but I think I'll share with you now in hopes that my heart can encourage yours. What are your hearts desires? Why were you created? Are you living your purpose? Go for your dreams! They're possible. Live and let Jesus make your heart smile.

I'll let you into my prayer journal, and hope it strengthens yours:

  • That I would have strength to fight the good fight of faith until the very end, and my life would glorify him in everything I do. 
  • That I wouldn't settle for anything less than striving for perfection, as I go through trials I would become stronger and stronger, and never giving up. 
  • That I would be a keeper of HIS home. Care for the least of these, take care of orphans and widows, and see their lives and families transformed.
  • That the Lord would put many people in front of me who want to "become fishers of men," and I would get to show them how to share hope, evangelize, and see them see lives restored. That is a special thing to be a part of.
  • That I would never doubt that I am a conqueror in Christ. 
  • Worship in beautiful places with beautiful friends of the same spirit. 
  • That I would be led into the deepest and darkest places, bringing hope, restoration, and grace to those who need it most. That the Lord would give me wisdom.
  • My life would produce good fruit, and my cup would overflow with blessings.
  • I would get to travel across nations, and bring GOOD news to "dangerous" places.
  • Jesus would send me an adventuring warrior preacher husband one day at the perfect time, and we'd live happily ever after.
  • My current family and future family would live a prosperous life, having just enough and a little more to share with others for the day. 
  • I'd be led to where princesses would be rescued, wolves would be caught. Chains would be broken.
  • I'd get to be a part of the missing found, homes swept clean and lost coins returned home.
  • I would have a content heart, and I would do something to impact this world with what I have, no matter where I am.
  • I would have knowledge, wisdom, and courage. 
  • I would forever have praise among my lips. 
  • My life would be filled with lovely things.  

In Jesus Name. :)
