Topic: Desire As A Part Of Hope When we say we desire a thing or we say we desire a circumstance but we do not truly want the thing or circumstance then our words do not match what is in our heart and soul. We might say we desire or say we want a thing or circumstance just to please another person. We might say we want a thing or say we want a circumstance because we think the circumstance would make us happy. However, deep down inside we know the truth. A false or wrong desire will not result in real hope. So often in life, wrong desires make people try to fill their inner emptiness with destructive elements. For example, a dark side of our nature causes us to try to satisfy our unmet need for love and companionship by drinking alcohol, smoking, and engaging in all kinds of sinful behavior. Wrong desire causes us to try to fill our genuine needs and wants through sinful behavior…sinful behavior destroying us rather than building us into more positive beings. The right kind of desire, a desire to do only good and virtuous things, brings hope and the Light.If these words have been a blessing, please forward them to a friend
