I know you do. But do it more.

"What do you wish?"

Judges 1:14

"I wish he'd come home"


"I hope she'll succeed"


"I want to, but I don't know if I can"


Wish on what?

Hope in whom?

And what are you doing about your wanting?


Is it idol worship to wish upon a star? 

To hope in nothing specific? 

 To just desperately want something, if your desire is not expressed to Him?


We want.

We wish.

We hope.

Why don't we pray more?

~ "in everything,

by prayer and supplication,

with thanksgiving,

let your requests be made known to God" ~

Philippians 4:6
