.....of what my purpose is while in this world. The song is true, how my heart is prone to wander from You and Your purposes. I become so distracted by the world around me. I covet so much and how easily discontentment finds me. I find my pursuit is for my own happiness and not Your glory. Thank you for reminding me that it's not about me. One of the prayers in Valley of Vision says,
When I desire worldly possessions,
help me to be rich toward thee;
When the vanities of the world ensnare me,
let me not plunge into new guilt and ruin.
May I remember the dignity of my spiritual release,
never be too busy to attend to my soul,
never be so engrossed with time
that I neglect the things of eternity;
thus may I not only live, but grow towards thee.
