"Thy will be done".
Saying this is easy but doing it is as hard as climbing Mt. Everest.
A sixteenth-century doctor, Thomas Fuller, once said, "Beware of no man more than thyself." So true.
Yesterday we talked about how we try and force our will on God and our inherent rebellion. Isaiah 48:4 says -
“Because I know that you are obstinate, And your neck is an iron sinew, And your forehead bronze..."
Our rebellious self-will is well known to God as well and there are numerous warnings in the Bible.
Overcoming self-will, to be able to do Gods will takes tremendous courage and strength. Where do we get this courage?
Simple: ASK God. He has already given all we need to know and remember in His word. Dwell in it.
Ask, Seek, Knock and keep knocking till you find the answer. But where is the door? It's the Bible and your prayer is your knock. Keep reading, keep praying.
