"Clogged with wishes. I was wishing that my wishes were what God wished, and if my wishes were not what God wished, I wished that I could wish that my wishes would go away, but the wishes were still there..."

I LOVE all of Elisabeth Elliot's books! That quote is so good (so true!)

Sometimes I think God's wish for us is to listen to our own wishes and follow them....I think the fact that we *can* wish is a gift from Him and he intends for us to use it, not necessarily wish it away. ;)
