Spiritual Sunday. "More"
Thank-you Charlotte and Ginger for doing these Spiritual Sundays. It helps me focus on what God is doing in my life and I love to read what He's doing in the lives of others. Anyone wanting to participate post what's on your heart and then add your name @http://bloggerspirit.blogspot.com/
All week my girls kept asking what I wanted for Christmas. I couldn't come up with anything. I had no idea what I wanted. When we were in the stores today, my oldest kept pointing out stuff ....but I didn't see anything I really needed or even wanted.
It finally dawned on me - I have what I really want: my family, my friends and most of all - God. My daughter's words keep going over in my head. "tell me what you want or what you want more of."
What I want - what I really need - is more of Him. The touch of His gentle love makes me strong. It gives me hope - fills me with courage - calms me down - And makes me really happy.
I know what I want - I want more of Him.

"More of Him, and less of me..." Amen! The Lord's love just satisfies all areas of our lives, doesn't it? Glory to God! Have a great weekend sister and God bless and keep you always.
A really beautiful post, Sarah. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.
Merry Christmas...Kathy
Amen, that is what we all need dear.
Hi Sarah,
This is such a very uplifting post, I am like you, I have all I need, just more of Him, thank you for sharing.Was so blessed by the song.

This is the first time I have heard this song. It's great! I can identify with your feelings about what you want. Thanks for posting.
Now that's just beautiful, Sarah.
OH~~ How I can tell this post was from your heart. This song was just beautiful and perfect.
God Bless,
Ginger
Hello Sarah,
I thought i would swing by and repay the visit. I have never heard of this artist... what a great song It's the cry of every true beleiver's heart :) i am glad i came by.. God bless you
I never thought I would see the day when I didn't need anything. That has been the case for quite a few years now though. I was thinking in material terms when I thought I didn't need anything. I did need - and want - more of Him. Thank you for this reminder. I've heard you can never have too much of a good thing. I know you can never have too much of Jesus.
Blessings,
Charlotte
Yes, what I want is more of HIM! So well spoken.
Hi Sarah,
I became a follower of yours today via Andrea's posting at her site and coming over here to meet you. I am deeply touched by your life's story.
I am in full agreement with you sister in saying, "What I want - what I really need - is more of Him. The touch of His gentle love makes me strong. It gives me hope - fills me with courage - calms me down - And makes me really happy. I know what I want - I want more of Him."
Yes, Yes, Yes that is what I want too, so very, very much.
Merry Christmas new friend and sister. I'll be back to visit you again.
I would be honored if you come and visit me at my site and if you feel led, to become a follower of mine as well. God has truly placed all of us together and I thank Him with all of my heart.
Love, Peace, Blessings & Prayers,

I love this post, Sarah. So true, so true. Reminded me of a song we used to sing:
More of You. More of You.
I've had all, but what I need is just more of You.
Of things I've had my fill,
And yet I hunger still.
Empty and bare,
Lord, hear my prayer for more of You.
As always, God has a way about Him! Thanks dear one for sharing. Blessings and hugs....
Amen! I agree .
Merry Christmas !

So very true...more of Him less of me....
God bless and Merry Christmas!
