Summary

You know the desires of your heart. We all have desires! We are, by God’s design, longing creatures. But we also know that our desires are often distorted and self-centered. We desire the wrong things or we elevate good things to become ultimate things. We find that our desires become idols! So how do we go about this? How do we desire as God intended for us to desire? How do we win in this constant battle of our affections?
