God's Will Be Done

Our life is not about what we want and how we want it and when we want it, it's not about seeking out our own desires and our own will, but it is God's will that we must submit to.

God is in control, even if it does not look like. He is still in control of his creation that's why the sun rises and sets at his command, that's why the trees and flowers bring forth fruit in there due season, that why the ocean stops at a certain distance from land.

We can not live in this life without God. Now some atheist may say yes we can, but we all know that the fool as said in his heart there is no God. Our morals, are ethics, are everyday principles for living comes from the laws, commandments and statues of God. He teaches us through his holy spirit how to live in the fallen world.

Jesus taught us to seek the Kingdom of God first, but in this world we are taught to seek education, seek money, seek power and fame, seek prestige and honor, seek expensive cars, cloths and jewelry, to seek relationships to seek church-ism, seek political parties,etc.... All of those things mentioned will vanish but the kingdom of God is forever.

What I have learned in my 30 years of being on the earth, is when praying, instead having a wish list of what you want God to do for you in the timing that you want it, ask God what does he want for your life and pray to him for patience until he reveals it to you. There are so many things that I desire for my life, but I want God's will to be done because his will is perfect and my wish list is flawed.

Sometimes doing Gods will is not easy, you may have to walk alone for a while, you may have people turn against you, you may be lied on and talked about, but all of the suffering that we may face can not be compared to what God has in-store for those who love him.

There is nothing wrong with having goals, desires and aspirations, but just make sure God comes first in your life, and even if you don't get exactly what you want, know that God will not withhold any good thing from you (Psalm 84:11),  he knows what best for us even when we think we know and he will provide what you need  in order to do his will, so let God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
