"DESIRE"

“Out of need springs desire, and out of desire springs the energy and the will to win." Denis Waitley

This quote struck me pretty strongly & got me to thinking. Does need spring desire or dose desire spring need? I know there are things that I desire to have in life that are just out of wanting to have nice things. Not so much that its a need but a want. It has been said that you cant expect good things from God if you don't ask for them. I always thought that God would just give us the desires of our heart and it was greedy for me to ask for more. Karma would take care of the rest. If you do good and show love then good & love would surely be given. Or so I thought! What I have learned is that as long as I only have expectations on how I need to treat people and not worry about all the drama around me, then my world "IS" filled with love and good. Not consumed by unnecessary worry, pity or "poor me" parties.

If you want or desire something you have to dig deep, find the drive to achieve such things and in turn God will give you the energy and the will to acquire such desires. You also have to believe with your whole being that you deserve it as well. Not just part of you but ALL of you. I write this and think of my own fears that block me from achieving my true desires of the heart. So this is not meant to sound like I have this down or read as if I think I'm all that. What this is meant to do is let other people know that its OK to be human & afraid of the unknown. Just don't let it cripple you!

Pick one small desire turn it into a need and watch the energy you will find to make it a win!!

Please remember to keep the men & woman of the armed forces in your prayers, so that they may be reunited with their loved ones soon.

Good nite and God bless.
