What do you want?

What do you want? 

Rick Warren has said: "Power follows purity.” God will empower those who allow God to purify them. 

David said, 
    Take delight in the LORD,
        and he will give you the desires of your heart. 
(Psalms 37:4)

Jesus said, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled." (Matthew 5:6)

What do your actions say about what you want? (Your mom always said actions speak louder than words, and she was right.) 

What do you desire?

​When we allow God to purify us, he loves to empower us, to give us the desires of our heart, to fill us with himself. 

    Take delight in the LORD,
        and he will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalms 37:4)

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6–7)
