Andrew Comiskey, founder of Desert Stream Ministry tells a
story of coming out as a homosexual to his mother. He said, that she told him- “I wish for more
for you…” This always stayed with him.
I think this phrase, “I wish for more for you” could be
uttered by parents, siblings, friends, spouses, cousins, aunts, uncles and
grandparents. Anyone we love and we see
struggling with anything from anger, to
addiction, to poverty, to disease, or any type of familial strife- our hearts
go out to them and we truly “wish for more” for them.
This also hits home in areas where we personally struggle,
and hope for wholeness and healing.
Depression is like a wave that knocks you down. The challenge is to get up-hit the surf
again-catch the next wave and ride!
The good news is God wants “The More” for us. He wants us to see better days inwardly
and outwardly. He wants us to know “He’s
the source of our strength. He’s the
strength of our life. We can lift our hands in total praise to Him!” (Richard
Smallwood-Total Praise)
