Don't know what you want? We do!

 Many people have no idea what they want in life, but Christians do.

Some have tried some of everything  trying to find happiness, and now after many years of trial and error, are no closer than they were at the beginning

There are people that want big houses because they somehow felt that a big house meant having a happy home. Homes and houses are not the same. Some want the house, but they are not willing to do what it takes to have a happy home.


The prodigal son was at home with a family that loved him. There was a roof over his head and food on the table yet he didn't want what he had. He wanted something else and went into the far country where he wasted his life only to realize that what he really wanted was back home.


 Many today are searching, chasing rainbows, and looking for four-leaf clovers. They don’t know what they want.

 We should examine ourselves and ask, what is it that I really want?

 Often what we want is freely available in the hands of God, we can get it if we run to him instead of away from him.

  If you are searching read Lamentations 3:40. Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD.

  The faithful should be secure in the Lord's promise. He has promised us eternal life; that's what we really want.
