What You Want vs. What You Need

Have you ever thought about what you want and what you need? How are they similar? How do they differ? Do you struggle to get what you want and neglectfully forget about what you need?

Well, these are my questions for today. I know what I want and fortunately it lines up with what I need.

• I want peace of mind. I need God in my life. He is peace. He is my joy in times of sorrow.
• I want a nice home. I need God in my life. He is my shelter and my fortress. He hides me in the pavillion of His tabernacle. He is my strong tower. I can run to Him and know that I am safe.
• I want to be secure. I need God in my life. He makes me to lie down in green pastures. He leads beside the still water. He anoints my head with oil. My cup overflows.

Whatever you want, Gods got it. Whatever you need He will supply. He clothes the flowers of the field and certainly God will provide for His children.
