       Here’s what happens when we want something too much. Because we desire it so much, it cuts off God’s flow of power to help us to receive whatever it is. The craving, having become strong, brings forth death. You will find, for instance, that a person who is say, in their mid-thirties and isn’t married (and who wants to be), you will often find in talking to that person that they simply have too strong of a desire to in fact get married. And this has caused God’s power to be relinquished. Their strong desire has prevented them from receiving that which they have wanted to receive. They’ve spent a great amount of time on dating websites, going to this date and that date, considering this person at church (the one who really didn’t match what they wanted), old and young, and they’ve gotten nowhere. What is the key to this person’s dilemma or anyone’s dilemma in this type of situation? Simply to say, “If I get married that is good. However, if I don’t, I’m am satisfied with that as well.” Now, for some of you right now, that sends shockwaves through your body. Making a statement like that seems absolutely terrifying.
