What Do You Want Most In This Life?

Aug 102010

What do we want most in this life?

We want to have a sturdy house to live in
We want to be able to have all the food we need
We want the works of our hands to last
never to be forgotten
never to rot and fade away

We want to be with the people we love
We want never to hurt them
and never to be misunderstood
We want as much time with them as we possibly could
We want them never to be away
nor to say goodbye
never to grow old
never to be apart.

Now which of these longings could we fulfill
by our own hands?
Which of these could be granted us
in our short journey here on earth?

Only JESUS has the power
only heaven has the answer
to take away our anxieties and fears
and to wipe away our every tear.

Agnes { Dear Joyce, Hi! I have been an avid reader of your blog about a year an a half ago when I too have been experiencing heartbreak and burden in my life. Your words have really been a pat on my shoulder and a hug rolled in one. I am now in a year long relationship and life has been treating me well. It is not a perfect relationship, we do have our shares of ups and downs but we come out of each as a better individual and we grow and learn together through those past mistakes. I just... } – Feb 05, 3:53 PM

faith { Hi joyce, i feel that im at the lowest point of my life...late last year i found out that my bf ( for 6 months) is still going steady with her prior gf. i was crushed after learning that he fooled me for 6 months that we are together. but since i love him so much, i forgave him with his promise that he will end things with her and come back to me clean slate. but he did not come back at all. he said he was empty after breaking up with her (doubt if they really did break... } – Jan 29, 2:20 PM
Tanya { Dear Joyce, I don't have a husband who physically abuses me but i have one who does so verbally and emotionally. He doesn't care whether we be in public places like malls, offices etc he just feels he needs to, in his own terms, "vent out his spleen". He had called me many things and often times says that i am stupid. He said i needed to reform, and that the only way was "his way". for the past year i have been doing all he asks of me, i am not allowed to talk to my friends, neither am... } – Jan 24, 9:16 AM
