"We gotta get to the point in our lives, where we actually believe that God and his desires for us are truly the things that are gonna make us happiest and give us the most peace and satisfy our souls. We talk about this and we know in our minds that it's true but somehow these beliefs don't make it into our everyday lives. I mean, if they did wouldn't we be different? Wouldn't we act different? Wouldn't we talk different? I don't think it's coz we don't wanna be happy or that we try to sabotage our own lives... maybe we just don't really trust God.

We've got to decide that no matter what the cost we want to be satisfied in God alone. Aren't you tired of reading your bible coz you feel you have to? I want to want to love Jesus. I want to long to spend time with him... to get up in the morning and can't wait to be with him. Anything in my life that is more exciting or more valuable to me than God, that things an idol. I don't wanna be like that.

I want to be like John Piper said: "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him". I want God to be glorified. I want to see what I can do to be most satisfied in him."
