1 John 2:16 NASB "For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world."Wow, what a nice truck! Today's verse is about wanting the things of the world! As the truck went by, I thought to myself "I would love to have that!". It was an older truck that had been restored. The color was my favorite, the style unique and the desire of my heart was to have one like that. But then I began to really think about it. I had no place to store it, I didn't need it for I had a vehicle but I got caught up in the desires of the world! I would rather have the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the eyes of Jesus and the faith to share Jesus. Let's be careful that our desires are not of this world but of the Word. That we would seek what Jesus did and lived as our desire rather than on the things of this world! peace, tom
