Wishes and things

My inspiring online neighbor has tagged me with this assignment. Renae wants me to write five wishes for things I want, but don’t need, and five wishes of a spiritual nature.

Now, this should be fun. Actually I think I have everything* I need except for air tickets for the whole family to visit my mom and sister in Singapore (I've not been there in nearly 7 years: I just wait for them to visit me). Now can you imagine not being able to just drive over to visit your mom? Boo hoo hoo. :(

*of physical and temporal nature, that is

Okay, wishes that I don't need... bet you can see a common thread. It's either school or something related to physical activity (not that I'm that big on physical activity...but dreams are free).

1. A huge laminating machine so I can laminate all my time line figures and big charts.
2. A pair of custom-made skating shoes so I can learn to skate without my bunions & spurs pinching and screaming at me.
3. A motor-home so we can do school on wheels (and visit Mandi, Renae and all my BPA friends along the way).
4. An indoor swimming pool (with sky lights above) that's filled with sea water.
5. A dance studio so I can exercise and dance to my heart's content.

Wishes of spiritual nature.

1. A truly loving heart with not a spot within.
2. "She speaks with wisdom and faithful instruction is on her tongue."Proverbs 31:26
3. A prayer warrior others can depend on. Matthew 18:19,20
4. Holiness. 2 Peter 3:14
5. Sweet contentment. Hebrews 13:5

I'll be Little Joan this evening and not tag anyone. :)

Plane tickets would be very nice. I wish I could get them for you! And I didn't think about a motor home. Can I change my list? :)

Your spiritual wishes are similar to mine. Don't we just want to be like Jesus? Thanks for playing, Miiko!

Peace to you,
Renae

Renae, you are so sweet to want to buy me plane tickets if you could! :) Thank you! A motor home would be so cool, don't you think? My dream is to visit every state (maybe except HA) in a year.

And yes, to be like Jesus - my constant longing and prayer...
