I would have the ability to travel, travel, travel--go to China or anywhere else any time I wanted!! So, I guess, I would want money to do that! I thought long and hard, and that's really what I would want--the ability to go and do missions!
Which was not a spiritual answer on my comment above. It might be spiritually for some but not all that I hold closest in my heart. What is the one thing you would want?
Freedom to go where I wanted when I wanted, the freedom to work or not to work, freedom from the constraints of money and time. Freedom from my own thoughts, expectations, and comparisons....
my home came to mind since we are searching for a new one and have had no luck. I've just been praying for God to give us a house that will allow us to glorify Him. I love having people over and have really enjoyed our bible study here. I know I don't have to have it - it's just a desire! But a large space to gather and a good kitchen since fellowship so often revolves around food!
I am married to Andy Dietz, pastor of First Baptist Church, Groom, TX. We've been in the ministry for over 35 years. We have four grown children and 10 beautiful grandchildren! I write to share what God is teaching me (it's a continual work in progress!) and to open the window to my life and allow you to look in.

Inner peace for myself and those I love.

I think.... FREEDOM.

For there to not be such things as child abuse and abortion!
For me?
Oneness.
As in John 16:21.
What a world of problems would be solved!

Children who live their lives fully in love with our Lord.
For my kids to always acknowledge Jesus as their Saviour and to give their lives to him. And...a great house by our church. And...just kidding. :)
I second Amy. 3 John 1:4
Well, I don't want to live by their church. Well, I might! The pictures she is posting sure make me want to visit!
