What is your one desire?
Have you given that much thought yet this year?
What is your one desire for 2012?
What do you hope to accomplish this year spiritually, physically, and emotionally?
What is your one desire for yourself, as a child of the Most High God?
I have been giving this a ton of thought lately – because in 2011, I truly believe I met my goal to obey God and trust in Him more than I had the year before.
Yet, I fell short in so many areas around obedience and trust – that I want to focus on allowing God to rule those areas and shine His light into others that I have yet to recognize as a stumbling block in my walk with Him.
I want to know the Truth, the Way, and the Life, – the doorway to FREEDOM - in 2012. Not mere head knowledge, because that has yet to prove itself enough. I want my heart to be saturated to the point of overflowing to every fiber of my being that His grace is most sufficient for me.
I desire to be radically changed from the inside out as I fully surrender to His will and rejoice in every detail of my life – knowing full well that His love will hold me together no matter what, and His grace will meet my ever need.
I leave you with this thought that has been keeping me very busy for the last 24 hours:

6 Friend's Thoughts:
I just put my 2012 goals in my journal last week. Trusting more was also one of mine:)
I love the words to this song! May He be my one desire. As you know, my goal last year was to grow in my trust in Him. He has proved so faithful. This year I'm asking Him to change my perspective on life. I don't want to be fearful of change but to view it as an adventure. And with the Lord in control I have nothing to fear. He will lead me and guide me every step of the way.
Love you Jill,
Debbie
After you posted the YouTube video of one of Kari's new songs yesterday, I went and listened to every one of the songs on her new album. My favorite is "What Love Is This.". Her music is amazing! Thanks for clueing me into the fact that she had a new cd out! Have a blessed weekend.
I have been giving this subject a lot of thought lately. My one desire is to be healthy physically, emotionally and spiritually. I want to feel good about myself, see myself, and my life as a whole through God’s eyes. I want to know the truth the, way the life, have intimate fellowship with Him, and walk daily in the abundant life that I have been given.
I am praying that God will guide me. I am trusting that His love will hold me up, and His grace will meet my every need.
What an absolutely powerful and thought provoking quote! I think I need to get my hands on a copy of the book you are reading.
I absolutely LOVE the chorus to the song that you shared!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. It is such a privilege to follow along, and allow what you are sharing to sink deep and lead me closer to His heart.
Much Love!!!

Thanks for spurring me on to think friend! HUGS!
I've been kinda thinking along the same lines... what do I want to truly have changed in me this year? What do I really want (spiritually)? :)
Haven't quite gotten that "ah-ha!" yet in my heart -- but am still seeking after God....
lovin' this journey with you!
