Truth:
Your desires are not random.
They point toward what has been shaping you.
Micro‑Teaching:
We often judge desires as problems to suppress or signals to obey. Formation invites a third posture: attention. Desires reveal direction before they reveal destination. What you long for—especially repeatedly—exposes what your heart has been trained to expect will give life. God does not shame desire; He reshapes it. But transformation begins by honestly noticing what you want without immediately defending or condemning it.
Practice (Today):
Pause once today when a strong desire surfaces—approval, distraction, control, rest, affirmation.
Name it quietly before God:
“This is what I want right now.”
Do not analyze or correct it. Simply notice it in God’s presence.
Reflection:
What desires have been most dominant for you lately?
What might they be revealing about where your attention and hope have been directed?
Word of the Day (teaser):
Desire — not an enemy to defeat, but a compass that reveals what is forming you.
