May He give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.
- Psalm 20:4 (NIV)
Everyone wants to be successful.
Regardless of what it is that we want to be successful at, we all want some success in our lives.
Can you imagine that you found a magical lamp with a genie and that genie would grant you your heart’s desire?
What would your desire be?
Riches? Fame? Love?
Did you know that if you make Jesus the focus of your life good things will happen?
When we lay our hearts at the feet of Jesus we start to see change, and that change brings good things to us.
Our riches may not be counted in gold.
Our fame may not be world renowned.
The love that we seek may not be found in a significant other.
But
Our riches are in our hearts, we are famous in our Father’s eyes (there is a song reference, hang on) and the love of the Father is truly all we need.
Now for that song:
Spent today in a conversation
In the mirror face to face with
Somebody less than perfect
I wouldn't choose me first if
I was looking for a champion
In fact I'd understand if
You picked everyone before me
But that's just not my story
True to who You are
You saw my heart
And made
Something out of nothing
I don't need my name in lights
I'm famous in my Father's eyes
Make no mistake
He knows my name
I'm not living for applause
I'm already so adored
It's all His stage
He knows my name oh, oh
. . .
I'm not meant to just stay quiet
I'm meant to be a lion
I'll roar beyond a song
With every moment that I've got
True to who You are
You saw my heart
And made
Something out of nothing
I don't need my name in lights
I'm famous in my Father's eyes
Make no mistake
He knows my name
I'm not living for applause
I'm already so adored
It's all His stage
He knows my name oh, oh
. . .
He calls me chosen, free forgiven, wanted, child of the King
His forever, held in treasure
I am loved
I don't need my name in lights
I'm famous in my Father's eyes
. . .
Lean on Jesus, you will find the desire of your heart and you will see success there.
