God’s Desires or Mine?

God’s Desires or Mine?

Do you every have a hard time distinguishing between what is your desire or God’s? Lately I have been taking time to pray and ask God if this is of Him or if this is my desire. I really want to tap into his heart for me and where He is calling or leading me. This is a hard process for me as I struggle to sit still long enough to listen to Him and His passion for me.

Yet I believe once the Holy Spirit dwells within you, you are able to listen more clearly. He can be your comfort and your guide. As the Spirit guides you, you can make the best decision and turns for a good for your life.

Are any of you like me in that you haven’t trained yourself to wait long enough for the Lord to share what is on His heart? Do you feel like your flesh takes over and misleads you? So many times our culture is looking for quick answers and fulfilling their own agenda. I challenge you to sit with Jesus. Be still and KNOW He is God as it states in Psalm 46:10 When I’ve waited on God and listened to what He has for me, His desire are far bigger and better than what we can every come up with. Don’t forfeit your best by taking it into your own place.

Set a sacred pace where you stop and listen. Set a place where the noise of this world can be silenced and you can listen to the still, soft whisper of His voice. Ask Him to show you His desires for you today!
