DESIRE GOD ABOVE ALL ELSE When we determine to walk close with the Lord, our relationship with

Him becomes so important, that we will not allow anyone, or anything, to keep us from fulfi lling our destiny serving Him. We will love God above all else, and our love of Him will overflow into all area s of our life. We will see others as God sees them; and love them as He loves t hem. We will also strive to be Christ-like in all that we do. We will delight ourselves in the work of the Holy Spirit; Who daily transforms u s more and more into the true image and likeness of Christ Jesus. We will also experience a lot of God's grace and peace in our life. Another thing we will do is look forward, with anticipation, to spending a lot o f time with God in prayer and Bible study; getting to know Him better and better . In the process, God will grant unto us all of the desires of our heart in acc ordance with His will. Why? Because we delight ourselves in Him, He delights Hi mself in us. God will also give us peace in the midst of the storms of life, hope for the fut ure, and a sense of purpose here and now. God is an awesome God - He is Almighty God, creator of all things, from everlast ing to everlasting, Heavenly Father, Prince of Peace, the One who sets the times for all who have the breath of life within. He is wonderful, counselor, our al l in all- without Him we wouldn t even exist. He provides all that we need and de sire. And gives unto us eternal life. The closer we walk with the Lord, the more we will see God's love, joy, peace, p atience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control in our li ves. Only God can give us this. God is love.
