Is God on your wishlist?

When I was a kid , I couldn’t wait for the new Sears “wishbook” catalog to arrive in November. I could and did spend hours poring over every item in the toy section. It was a great source to use in making our Christmas list for mom and dad. This was a serious thing for us, really serious. We knew there would only be two or three presents under the tree that didn’t hold socks, underwear and other necessities of life. That meant you really needed to put some thought into what went on that list. Where is this thread of thought going you ask? After all Christmas was 2 months ago! Ok, I’ll get to the point already! Over the last several weeks the whole question of what it is that I crave or thirst for has been foremost in my thoughts. Then last Friday night night God turned up the heat on me a little more, in the form of a message from Ron Luce at the Acquire The Fire youth conference. He posed the following question to us, is God a want or a need in your life? I eat every day, drink liquid every day, breathe constantly , sleep … Is communion and relationship with Him a that same level, would I “gasp” for communion with Him, panic if I don’t read His Word? God is truly challenging my depth of commitment and understanding, how about you?

  1. No, I can get along without God for days without noticing. That’s the problem.
