Selfish Desires, by Dan Apartian

It is typical for us to have a tendency to want Christ to come into our lives, but then lean toward maintaining our own control, and not letting Him truly lead us. There are good desires and bad, and we know to reject the bad, but the frustration of unfulfilled good desires can also lead to sin. Submission to God has to be fully complete, not in part. Our surrendered hearts become the leaders of our direction in God, desiring what is good, rejecting what is evil.
