What is Desire?

What do I desire Most from God? And what is Desire?

Since I was little girl, I have sought to understand what it is that I desire, and God has been faithful to give me vision and answer to more appropriately understand. Though time and time again, I find myself desiring self-gratifying things, which are not often in line with the will He has for my life.

As I have spent more time getting to know the God of the Universe, I find my deepest desire is to know Him more. I truly want to be intimately acquainted with His character and His will above all else. As I become more acquainted with His character, my desires have changed in various ways. As I have processed through the character of the God of the Universe, I realize the simplicity of His nature is answered in Love. One thing I desire passionately is to appropriately teach God’s character; as I know Him more and more, I desire to try and effectively help others to become more acquainted with who Him. There are many things I aspire to do and hope to be for God, as I grow, the burden to persevere and help others know Him expands in masses. There is one other desire that continues to grow as I become to know God more and more and that is the desire to be a wife and a mother. The desire is not natural to my character, but knowing God more and more I feel the call and burden to be a part of the Joy of being a wife and mom.

I believe that I will grow to know God more each day that I pursue Him and I foresee a desire evolving as that takes place, and there is such joy in knowing that He is Love.
