When it is easy to get mad and pout

When it is easy to get mad and pout

If we were granted one wish

If you could have one wish what would it be.
If you were 20 what would you wish for.

1. Ask for whatever you want God to give you.

1kings3:1-14

And if you...vs 14.

But none of the world things will have a lasting affect on the eternal.

3. God still asks that question today

What do you want most.
Put God first above anything or anyone else.

Have you forsaken your first love.

Seek after eternal things.

4. When God was given a choice.

•God sought after you
•He chose to leave riches and glory for you
•He chose to suffer greatly for you
•He chose to die a terrible death for you.-John 14:6
•He chose to have a relationship with you
•He chose not to force you to be his friend.

Will the choices of God change the way you make your choices in life.

Holy sprit do my choices please you.
