de·sire /dəˈzī(ə)r/ a strong feeling of wanting to have something or wishing for something to happen. ⠀ What do you desire most in life? Is it fame? A promotion? Higher grades in school? The next Marvel movie? A new car or a home? ⠀ There’s a song by Jimmy Needham that portrays a powerful and convicting message regarding our desires: ⠀ “Anything I put before my God is an idol Anything I want with all my heart is an idol And anything I can't stop thinking of is an idol And anything that I give all my love is an idol” ⠀ It’s okay to want something but when your wants start to become your priority and take control of your direction in life then it’s time to do some re-evaluating. This world has nothing to offer that should come before God. ⠀ The devil will use anything in his means to get in the way of your relationship with God, don’t let him win. Open your eyes, be cautious and aware of what the devil might use against you. ⠀ Entertainment and social gratification is constantly being pushed and promoted; urging its viewers to seek after the next best thing or the next big movie. Offering temporarily feelings of satisfaction and instant gratification, while keeping us so distracted that we forget about God and the significance of our relationship with Him. ⠀ ..God loves me so as long as I go to church on Sunday then the rest of the week I can do, say, or have whatever I want and if something goes wrong I know God will be there… ⠀ Romans 12:2 says this “Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” ⠀ God did not send His son, to die on a cross so that we could simply go about our day. Yes, God loves you, but He wants SO much more for your life and when we truly give up all that we have to follow Him then and only then will you be living to your fullest potential. ⠀ Stop allowing the devil to use entertainment, success or temporarily pleasures to cloud your perspective but keep your heart and your eyes focused on God. He should be your focus. There is nothing we ought to desire more than a deeper relationship with our Lord. #FaithFilledCaptions

Setting course records...for highest score per round ‍♂️

It’s that time of year where I attempt to live out of my car as much as possible! I always keep an air mattress in the back so I can sleep at trailheads and get an early start to adventures. In the past, I have thrown all of my clothes into a giant @cotopaxi duffel bag and struggled to find what I needed, so I was super excited when they sent me the Allpa 35L travel pack to try out. It has tons of compartments to keep your stuff organized (here I am digging through the top compartment for sunscreen) but it’s not a rigid carry on suitcase that I wouldn’t want to leave in my car. I am super excited to take it on my next plane adventure, but it’s already making a huge difference in my day to day adventures! #ambassador #gearforgood • • • • • #mountaingirls #bendoregon #pnw #alpinebabes #centraloregon #pnwonderland #outdoorwomen #inbend #wildernessbabes #upperleftusa #oregon #radgirlslife #thatpnwlife #visitbend #oregonexplored #pacificnorthwest #traveloregon #pnwcollective #cascadiaexplored #choosemountains #bestoforegon #pdx #womenwhohike #washington #northwestisbest #pnwlife #herpnwlife
