The Goal of My Life

The goal of my life is that while I’m alive, when I die and long after my death I’m known as a woman who trusted God no matter what. I want it said about me that I trusted in the goodness of the Lord all my days. I want to be known as a friend of God in the good times and the bad. I don’t want it to be said that I ran a good race for awhile but that I got tired and gave up. I never want to be known as a bitter woman.

I want it to be known that I saw many miracles first hand. Also, that I trusted and believed when others gave up. I want to be thought of as a woman that refused to be offended at God and man. I want to live my days with joy in my heart and with a peaceful mind.

I want the supernatural to be super natural to me. I want to believe every word of the Bible. I don’t want to water down even one word of it. I want to live above natural laws. I want to see through eyes of truth instead of circumstance. I want everyone to know that I believe with God all things are possible. I want to be best friends with the Holy Spirit.

I want to be known as a woman that worshipped God outwardly and inwardly. I want to have a thankful heart even on my hardest days. I want for my flesh to praise the Lord even when all it wants to do is die. Also, on my best days I want to bless the Lord with shouts of praise and thanksgiving. I do not ever want to turn and thank the clouds more than I thank the Lord.

One day I want my children to stand and call me blessed. I want them to be world changers because of things I pour into them today. I want it to be said that I trained up all my children in the way they should go and that they never departed from it.

I want to be known as a woman that built her husband up and never tore him down. I want to always be a Godly example of a wife. I want to respect and honor my husband all my days. I want to be the perfect help mate for him. I want to prefer him over myself every day. I want to meet every need in him that I was intended to meet.

I look forward to the day when I’m told by Jesus that I was a good and faithful servant.

Your words have touched my heart and more than adequately express my hearts desires as well. Your faith constantly amazes me and your humbleness is that which I aspire to achieve. Your love for God pours from your very being. You are a walking, talking example of the goodness of our Father and your children and friends already call you blessed. I have never thought anything less than this of you.

Brandi-

I, too, see you already living this out. Of course, continuing to live it out is a wonderful, supernatural goal. Go for it! Know that you are not alone, but that you have all of heaven and KLF behind you!

Is it okay to say I want your goals too?

You are a living example of everything you had just said. YOU ARE THE REAL DEAL! And I get to see you everyday and say those things now instead of when you're "gone".
