My friend Skip loves Lamborghinis – he had a few of these fancy cars before the Lord broke through in his life. Here’s how he takes his desires to the Lord….
"Actually, God cares about Skip’s desire concerning Lamborghinis. That doesn’t mean He desires Skip to have one. God determines what is good for His servants because He actually knows what is good for us and for Him. But even if God knows that a Lamborghini is not really good for Skip, He also knows that Skip has a desire for Lamborghinis.
As long as Skip acknowledges that God actually knows about this desire, and Skip leaves it in his Master’s hands, the desire will only draw servant and Master closer. It is a matter of submission to the benevolent understanding of the Master. It is a matter of trusting that the Master knows and will do what is best for all.
It is not a matter of ignoring, rejecting or dismissing the desire. The desire is simply a symptom of passion and passion is what makes us truly human. But passion unchecked by submission is like fruit picked from the Tree. Poisonous, destructive, deadly".
Have you disclosed all of your hearts desires to the Lord today?
