"One thing I have desired of the LORD, that will I seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to inquire in His temple." Psalm 27:4
Within the sweet days of simplicity.. Through dark and sleepless nights… Be my joy.. As I journey through the days You give me… Upon every laugh, smile, memory…. Be my joy…. I remember when You met me, On my knees weeping… On my feet praising….. With each passing moment… Fill me with your Joy…. Though the world is dark and fading away… Filled with pain, confusion and loss… Be my joy… Help me to see as You would… To love without counting the cost… Fill me with your Joy… I struggle with understanding… Yet knowing still; Thy will is Sovereign… Make me to be all that You have called me too… Be my Joy LORD…..
Nevertheless I am continually with you; You hold me by my right hand. You will guide me with Your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom have I in heaven but You? And there is none upon earth that i desire besides You. My flesh and my heart fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Psalm 73:23-26
Hello All... Well i read this and I really felt the LORD speak to me heart with this..So i hope whoever reads this will be just as blessed...May we continue to walk worthy of the calling He has called us too....
WE WISH TO SEE JESUS.John 12:21 The constant cry of the world is, "Who will show us any good?" They seek satisfaction in earthly comforts, enjoyments, and riches. But the quickened sinner knows of only one good. "I wish I knew where I might find Him!" When he is truly awakened to feel his guilt, if you could lay a fortune before him he would say, "Take it away: I want to find Him." It is a blessed thing for a man when he has brought his desires into focus, so that they all center in one object. When he has fifty different desires, his heart resembles a stagnant pool spreading out into a marsh, breeding disease; but when all his desires are channeled in one direction, his heart becomes like a river of pure water, running swiftly to fertilize the fields. Happy is he who has one desire, if that one desire is set on Christ, though it may not yet have been realized. When a soul desires Jesus, it is a sure indication of divine work within. Such a man will never be content with mere externals. He will say, "I want Christ; I must have Him--mere ordinances are of no use to me. I want Himself; do not offer me these; you offer me the empty pitcher, while I am dying of thirst; give me water or I die. Jesus is my soul's desire. I wish to see Jesus!" Is this your condition, my reader, at this moment? Have you only one desire, and is that for Christ? Then you are not far from the kingdom of heaven. Have you only one wish in your heart, and that is that you may be washed from all your sins in Jesus' blood? Can you really say, "I would give all I have to be a Christian. I would give up everything I have and hope for, in order to know that I have an interest in Christ"? Then, despite all your fears, be encouraged--the Lord loves you, and you will come out into daylight soon and rejoice in the liberty with which Christ makes you free.

Psalm 40:1-3 - I waited patiently for the LORD; and He inclined to me, and heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock and established my steps. He has put a new song in my mouth.

Then He said to them all, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow Me."(Luke 9:23)
Heres a challenge that i got tonight and that is lets forsake all and follow Him wholeheartedly...
