ALIGNING OUR WILL WITH GOD’S WILL

The following is a reprint from a blog of mine of February 27, 2012.

Nothing has more strength than dire necessity. — Euripides

That pretty much describes how needs are met. “The Father knows our needs,” does not mean that the Father will either gift us with our need fulfilled or make our need disappear…no. He gives us strength we knew naught of to do what needs doing.

Wants, on the other hand, are pretty much dependent on our willingness to do other than beg God for a freebie. In general, God isn’t going to do for us what we can do for ourselves.

Plus, there are a lot of wants that God isn’t about to touch and neither should we, but that seldom stops us, does it?

There…that’s an excellent reason for aligning our will with God’s will.

Thank You.
