Life- Desire

Being a woman, there is an innate desire built into everyone of us that wants to be completely and utterly enthralled over. We want to be loved. We want to be wanted. And with all these feelings if there is ever a time in a woman's life when she does not feel wanted or desired it will eventually take a toll. A lot of the self esteem issues that girls deal with today originate from these needs and wants. Sometimes it doesn't even matter how much a woman is loved or wanted- she still might fall into the bottomless pit of endless thoughts of not being desirable. As I was sitting the other day these small thoughts began to creep into my mind.  When instead of thinking about how I wanted to be loved, desired, and enthralled....I was faced with the thought that my God feels the same.  The King wants us to be completely head over hills for Him.  But instead we settle for a 30 minute Bible study, if that.  We disappoint Him more than desire Him.  When will we finally get past looking at this amazingly beautiful relationship that we have with a Living God as something to check off our list of things to do for the day? God is everywhere and in everything, and cannot be confined to a 'To Do' list. We can change the world if we change from viewing God as being a part of our lives- To God Is Our Lives. He wants us to desire, want, yearn after, and to be enthralled by Him.
