One thing

Many of you followers know that I have spent a good amount of personal time and am now preaching through the book of Philippians at church.

This challenged me today, and it's brief, so it's a double-winner.

If I could have anything at all from God, that one thing would be _____________________.

Happiness?  Success?  Fame?  Fortune?  A relationship?  Power?  A religious and/or spiritual experience?  Good friends?  A boat?  Health?

Paul's answer:  to know God (Phil. 3.10).  At the end of his life, in prison, maligned by many, body wearing out, all the man wants is to know God well.

Amen.
