My wish list..
1. I wish I was wiser, bolder, more courageous.
2. I wish sometimes I would stop to listen, instead of just getting mad.
3. I wish I could believe all the time and no matter the circumstances, to not trust my feelings and that God loves me, and that hardships are just as much a token of His love than manifold blessings.
4. I wish I had deeper understanding.
5. I wish I had a bigger heart for God.
6. I wish I was more faithful.
7. I wish whatever time is left on this earth, to be conformed to He who loves me and if that takes always feeling like bearing the cross, then I wish for a quiet spirit to accept it.
8. I wish for any love of this world to die within me.
9. I wish to be content in whatever circumstances.
10. I wish whatever I do, say, think, or.. to be all to the glory of God.
"I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. 16Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. 17So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. 18For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 19For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing." (Romans 7) |
