Consuming Fire

that song has been in my head forever! 
Consuming fire fan into flame,
A passion for Your Name,
Spirit of God would You fall in this place,
Lord have Your way,
Lord have Your way with us
 
If I were truly able to trust in His way, then I wouldn't even need to ask for anything. 
None of us would, right? 
Yet I am always asking. Through prayer, through personal efforts -
I am trying to construct my own life and simply asking for God's blessing.
Although I know I have so much, I don't feel it.
Sure, I can say the the treasures in heaven are the only thing that matters.
Yet, what about success on earth? Should that be neglected?
I feel like it's always people who have succeeded so much, 
who have done amazing things already, 
who have aced their life, 
who have become an admired figure 
who tell me this. 
Those who have less will have more in eternity.
Well, then what about those who have a lot?
What about those who know God so well, who give so much to God
AND are blessed with all these talents, wisdom, beauty, and ridiculous success.
What happens to them? 
They have treasures in heaven, but also on earth -right? 
Wow, they just have so much treasure everywhere. 
Treasure treasure treasure. 
Oh and then they are telling me that I only need treasure in heaven.
 
Hmm...
