{ la vita è bella }

My Christmas "Wish list". . .

• Pink Converse All Stars
• Do Hard Things (the book)
• Camera Bag
• "Possibilities" (the perfume)
• Cowgirl boots
• "The Day I Was Crucified: as told by Jesus Christ" (the book)
• Clothes
• Jewelry
  

The season for wishes is here. And as a friend said, "Isn't it so nice that wishes don't actually cost anything!?!"

I agree :)

But even more than that, I am so glad that have been given the ability to be totally and completely satisfied in my Savior. Although it is not always that I live with this mindset, He is All in All to me.

~I have no good outside of Him.

~There is no friend that sticks closer than Him.

~He has given me his Living Word, and has allowed me to live in a country where I have ready and easy access to It.

~He supplies my every need, and then goes beyond that, and satisfies my every desire as well.

~As my Best Friend, He is always there to listen, encourage, and counsel.

~As the Lover of my Soul, he daily wins my heart with the acts of love he displays for me, sunsets, flowers, speaking to my heart from His Word.

~It is in His presence that I can find lasting joy.

~He orders and establishes my steps, when I seem to have lost my way.

~When I am overwhelmed with discouragement, fears, or anger, He leads me to a quiet place, and restores me to a right relationship with Him.

. . .What are boots and perfume in comparison to all that?.

So, the biggest thing on my "Wish list" this year is. . .

• To know and be conformed to Him. Phil 3:10
