So many times the wants in our life are based on our desire. We often can fill the desires on our own, but these things might not be God\u2019s will for your life. The small thoughts that I am having today are these:<\/p>\n

\u201cTo commit is to take action and follow through on your desire.<\/p>\n

With no passion comes any desire.<\/p>\n

With no desire comes any commitment.<\/p>\n

With no commitment comes any blessing.\u201d<\/p>\n

With trust and commitment to God, you will build faith and strength and security in your life. Then, we can lead others to him.<\/p>\n

Psalm 112:1-10<\/strong><\/p>\n

[1<\/strong>] Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
\n[2<\/strong>] His seed shall be mighty upon earth: the generation of the upright shall be blessed.
\n[3<\/strong>] Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever.
\n[4<\/strong>] Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
\n[5<\/strong>] A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion.
\n[6<\/strong>] Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
\n[7<\/strong>] He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.
\n[8<\/strong>] His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.
\n[9<\/strong>] He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.
\n[10<\/strong>] The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let details steal your desire. We must trust and commit to God for the blessing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
