I always wonder what as a group of people were they thinking? Easy to judge others, isn't it. <BR/><BR/>This really spoke to me. I'm glad I caught up after getting so behind on visiting.

He's given me nine contracts. He's equipped me to write and publish over 600 articles (I quit counting a long time ago at the 600 mark).<BR/><BR/>But I want more in the publishing arena. I'm in a wilderness of sorts, knowing the Promised Land is ahead, but wondering, wondering, wondering...<BR/><BR/>"Behold, don't crave intensely in your wilderness," the Psalmist said.<BR/><BR/>B, you warn us not to do this, but to focus on God instead, so that the Pleasant Land will be good, oh, so good.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this reminder.

I, too, have been reminded over and over that what God truly wants to hear is my praises to Him in the midst of this wilderness. Thank you, Brandilyn, for sharing your thoughts on this wonderful psalm.Marjorie Vawterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12891691423146562031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10583449.post-1166191605279934102006-12-15T06:06:00.000-08:002006-12-15T06:06:00.000-08:00This is so true.

I never want to lose the joy of chasing after my Father. Of ever yearning for more of Him. For following hard after Him through the wildernesses and into the Promised Land. The challenge for me is to keep chasing after God in the wilderness without losing the ability to delight in the Promised Land when I reach it.<BR/><BR/>But God is so good. And I am learning that His path is full of delights and I can't wait to see where He's taking me!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10583449.post-1166190865238596332006-12-15T05:54:00.000-08:002006-12-15T05:54:00.000-08:00Don't know why I can't post as myself today, but a...Don't know why I can't post as myself today, but anyway.

I've been pressing forward in my wilderness, asking God, "Where are You?", knowing He is there, but not feeling Him so well. Your post is a great reminder to me to be still and wait for God's deliverance. I keep asking God to show Himself, but that is "craving intensely in the wilderness." I need to love Him, praise Him, do what I know to be right and wait. Thank you for giving me a sense of "its-gonna-be-okay" today.Tamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12344112481831867779noreply@blogger.com
