Desire, what comes to mind is earthly desire, material things. Have we need of these desires, to serve God and spread his word? I was raised in the time when material things were not important, as children, we played in our make believe world with our toys of the time.
Desire, which of us doesn’t have desire, for a prosperous life, for our children to live better than we did, to have the technology in our homes, to live better, be better off than we were as children.
What do these desires offer, to us as Christians, can we take them to heaven with us? Are we not here to spread Gods word, to live as God would have us to live? When God calls us home, the “desires” of this world will be left behind.
So I say to you, let God provide as he would have us to be and let our earthly desires not over power us. Let us not lust for the earthly things that are our desires, but believe that God will provide, as his will be, for our lives.
