Today's Topic: Desire God
Author: Jerry Savelle
Verse(s): Psalms 37:4
Today's Confession: I was born to be a blessing!
Devotional:
"Delight thyself also in the Lord; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." Psalm 37:4
God knows the very desires of your heart. When He knows that you are there to love and serve Him and that you desire Him above all others, you will not have to ask Him for anything. He knows what is in your heart, and He will cause the blessings to come on you and overtake you.
"For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the Lord abhorreth. The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts." Psalm 10:3,4
You don't need to go around confessing what you need all the time. If you begin giving your life to others, your needs will be met.
"He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them." Psalm 145:19
You were born both to be a blessing and to be blessed. But most of all, you were born to desire God above everything else.

Do You Wanna See My Scars?
Do you wanna see my scars?
Sitting here just open to thoughts of bliss,
Sitting here wondering can that man really handle this?
Handle the parts that's broken
The parts that may seem hopeless.
Reading those words over and over
Wishing tonight you could just come closer.
To listen to my voice and hear it in my heart.
So I can tell you
When it all fell apart.
How I felt alone
Felt like I was nothing
How I felt so sad
Damn, those days were something.
And you maybe right
Those parts are healed
But there's that part that is not often revealed.
How I stay alone
Afraid to try again
Just to myself afraid to trust men
Content in my shell
No worries about heartache
Another brother leaving me
Just too much to take.
Wishing my boys could see me happy
The concern in their eyes
When they check after me
Some days are good
Some not
Nearly broke my heart when that last one got caught.
Probably for the best that he and I are now apart.
Made way for the man who offered to see my scars.
