Giving a Desire to God

I need to grow up and it is about time. I have struggled so long but I realize that I have put much time into worrying about it. For long I have spoken about how courtship should go and that people must go about it in a way that would glorify God. I will wait for God's timing on it. I am not going to get my name out there or worry about what the future will bring.  Its a constant thing and reminder. My life is not how I have lined it up. I will live my life in a way that will honor God by relying solely upon him. God has helped me out so much. I will seek God and let him guide my steps. I won't worry about tomorrow for todays troubles are enough for today.

Preparation

I am about to turn 25 in 13 days. In general I do not ask for anything. I just want a peaceful quiet time with family but in general it never works out in such a manner. So my sincerest want is that I am not putting  the things of this world first. I have had a bad habit of putting my eyes onto things that I will not take with me when I leave this world. So what should I ask for. That Christ might be glorified that instead of thinking about Jack Frost, Frosty the Snowman, Santa Claus, and Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer people might see that it is about the Son of God, Jesus Christ born in Bethlehem who died for the sin of the World. It is not about the presents it is about Christ.
