What’s your vision for the future?

I have a prayer journal I’ve  written in every once in a while since January 2000.  This morning I reviewed this entry written 5 years ago this month when Carie and I started dating:

Dear God,

I guess my desire is to be a man for you.  Like my grandfathers and my dad.  What examples you have given me and laid out in front of me.  I long to be like your Son Jesus Christ every day.  To reach new heights, and to love you like I never thought possible.
I also desire to love others in a true, honest, and pure way. 
And one more thing…I also want to grow old with Carie, and have a relationship that is ALL about you.  I want to grow and I want to help her to grow.  I need to be strong!
Help God!  Help!

I love You.
Marty
