Life, Love, Liberty quote

My life has no semblance to the dreams I had from the time I was 9 years old. I can't find one aspect of LIFE that could even pass as a small interlude in my dreams and plans. Actually, the life I now live is so far removed from the reality of the life I set out in pursuit of in 1991 that it could qualify as a dream. And so, that's what I have - a Dream Life!

My Soul Longs

For what does your soul long?  This is a question we should be asking ourselves.  We long for things, this is for sure.  Our soul is our mind, our will, and our emotions.  For what does our soul long?

As the hart pants and longs for the water brooks, so I pant and long for You, O God. My inner self thirsts for God, for the living God.
Psalm 42:1-2

I want God to be the one thing I desire.  I know that nothing and no one satisfies like Him.  He should be my constant aim and deepest desire.  If I seek after Him, He will take care of everything that pertains to me.  A deer needs water.  I need God!  He is an essential.  That means, I can't survive without Him.

O God, You are my God, earnestly will I seek You; my inner self thirsts for You, my flesh longs and is faint for You, in a dry and weary land where no water is. So I have looked upon You in the sanctuary to see Your power and Your glory. Because Your loving-kindness is better than life, my lips shall praise You. So will I bless You while I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. My whole being shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise You with joyful lips when I remember You upon my bed and meditate on You in the night watches. For you have been my help, and in the shadow of Your wings will I rejoice. My whole being follows hard after You and clings closely to You; Your right hand upholds me.
Psalm 63:1-8 AMP
