We
will continue on with Day 3 of this series inspired by Tyler Smith from Logos
Talk who compiled this list of Elisabeth Elliot’s most famous quotes.
Check
back tomorrow for our first article called “Why Should I Pray?” by Liza Grace.
Here
is today’s quote:
“I
have one desire now – to live a life of reckless abandon for the Lord, putting
all my energy and strength into it.”
-Elisabeth Elliot
Can you truthfully say this is your only desire? How do you think we
can live lives of reckless abandon? Share in the comments!
I think for most of us Christians, this is our desire! Its what we strive for until heaven! But I don't think its our ONLY desire.....at least not mine! I have a looooooong list of desires! And that one is at the top, but it doesn't stand alone! And what I've learned about living lives of reckless abandon is that its a process! I used to think it was just a prayer and then God just kinda took over, but nope! Its not, but its a beautiful process! :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree! My lists of desires are pretty long, too! And praise God that He doesn't leave us alone to fix our desires! He takes us by the hand and leads us to desire Him more than anything else! :)
