I have been seeking the truth about God's will....these are some of the truths I have found in the precious Word of God....be blessed!

God wants us to know and understand what His will is. (Eph 5:17)

Pray that Gods will be done in your life. (Matt 6:10)

Ask God to teach you to do His will. (Col 1:9, Ps 143:10)

As we let our minds be transformed by the Word we can know God’s will. (Rom 12:2)

The scripture is our guide to if something is God’s will or not. (John 7:17)

We are not to seek our own will, but to do the will of God. (John 5:30)

We are to live to do the will of God no matter what the cost to self. (Matt 26:42)

Seek to live your life surrendered to God’s will. (John 6:38-40)

It is God’s will that we are connected to Him and that we focus our eyes on Him. (John 17:24)

When we are immersed in the Word we will delight to do God’s will. (Ps 40:8)

Love for God should motivate us to do God’s will. (Eph 6:6)

God work’s in us to enable us to do His will. (Heb 13:21, Phil 2:13)

It is the will of God that we do good. (1 Peter 2:15)

It is God’s will that we are thankful in every situation. (1 Thess 5:18)

Doing God’s will calls for endurance, but blessings will follow. (Heb 10:36)

We are called the family of God if we do His will. (Mark 3:35)

Only those who do God’s will, will have eternal life. (1 John 2:17)

Do you have anything to add or to share?

God in His providence brought the Hebrews into the mountain fastnesses before the sea, that He might manifest His power in their deliverance and signally humble the pride of their oppressors. He might have saved them in any other way, but He chose this method in order to test their faith and strengthen their trust in Him. The people were weary and terrified, yet if they had held back when Moses bade them advance, God would never have opened the path for them. It was "by faith" that "they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land." Hebrews 11:29. In marching down to the very water, they showed that they believed the word of God as spoken by Moses. They did all that was in their power to do, and then the Mighty One of Israel divided the sea to make a path for their feet.

The great lesson here taught is for all time. Often the Christian life is beset by dangers, and duty seems hard to perform. The imagination pictures impending ruin before and bondage or death behind. Yet the voice of God speaks clearly, "Go forward." We should obey this command, even though our eyes cannot penetrate the darkness, and we feel the cold waves about our feet. The obstacles that hinder our progress will never disappear before a halting, doubting spirit. Those who defer obedience till every shadow of uncertainty disappears and there remains no risk of failure or defeat, will never obey at all. Unbelief whispers, "Let us wait till the obstructions are removed, and we can see our way clearly;" but faith courageously urges an advance, hoping all things, believing all things.

The cloud that was a wall of darkness to the Egyptians was to the Hebrews a great flood of light, illuminating the whole camp, and shedding brightness upon the path before them. So the dealings of Providence bring to the unbelieving, darkness and despair, while to the trusting soul they are full of light and peace. The path where God leads the way may lie through the desert or the sea, but it is a safe path.

God loves US, just THINK about that....what an amazing thought that is that the Almighty God of the universe, the Creator of all loves US! Can you even begin to comprehend it?   I am in awe.

We are CALLED to be saints...to live HOLY, DEDICATED lives of SERVICE to God and mankind...this is His desire for us and the path of true HAPPINESS now and eternally.  He has chosen us....I am inspired.

Grace and Peace are a GIFT from God...we will never find them anywhere else...what an amazing gift, are our hearts open to receive it? I am deeply grateful.

...Beloved of God, called to be saints:  Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 1:7)

We are part of the great web of humanity.  We become changed into the image of that upon which we dwell. Then how important to open our hearts to the things that are true and lovely and of good report.  Let into the heart the Sun of Righteousness.  Do not cherish one root of bitterness..... O let us encourage our souls to look to Jesus!

 -That I May Know Him Pg 182-

I'm with you in times of trouble.......You never need to doubt if I am in the midst of your circumstances.  No matter how hot the fire seems, the flames will not scorch you as long as I am present.  Just as I was with Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in their fiery test of faith, I am here now with you, ready to cool you off and keep you calm as we walk through this trial together.  You may  not see it now, but you...will someday be like precious silver that has been refined by fire and purified in My presence.  Remember, I did not put you in a fire to burn you out.  Trust Me with your troubled hear, and watch Me do wonders for you in the midst of the hottest flames.....Love Your King and Your Refiner

The Lord is my strength, my shield from every danger.  I trust in Him with all my heart, He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy.  Psalm 27:8

-His Princess pg 42-

A knowledge of God is the foundation of all true education and of all true service. It is the only real safeguard against temptation. It is this alone that can make us like God in character.

This is the knowledge needed by all who are working for the uplifting of their fellow men. Transformation of character, purity of life, efficiency in service, adherence to correct principles, all depend upon a right knowledge of God. This knowledge is the essential preparation both for this life and for the life to come.

"The knowledge of the Holy is understanding." Proverbs 9:10.

Through a knowledge of Him are given unto us "all things that pertain unto life and godliness." 2 Peter 1:3.

"This is life eternal," said Jesus, "that they might know Thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent." John 17:3.

Christ was treated as we deserve, that we might be treated as He deserves. He was condemned for our sins, in which He had no share, that we might be justified by His righteousness, in which we had no share. He suffered the death which was ours, that we might receive the life which was His. "With His stripes we are healed." Desire of Ages Pg 25

It seems like the start of summer as the day begins...mine started peacefully, but for others there was the stress of a seemingly endless day....many meals to be made and mouths to be fed and limited labor due to sudden sickness.   

We are a family, not by blood, but by His blood and He has given us an opportunity to lighten the load and we embrace the opportunity to labour in love for Him and for each other. To serve as He has served us.

We wash dishes, silverware and trays, washing away the smudges and stains of the food that has sustained the hungry.  The dishes now clean will be used again, a new opportunity to serve.  And we who have been washed clean, can be used again, will be given the opportunity and called to serve.

Beans are sorted, tomatoes chopped,  cucumbers cut up, onions sliced and stir-fried til soft and tender, popcorn popped, food prepared for lunch, for the coming Sabbath and farewells to those who are leaving.  

I work in silence, pondering, praying, looking for lessons to learn, listening.

Swift strokes of my knife blade cut deep into the smooth red flesh of the tomatoes which are ripe and ready to be crushed and broken that others may be filled and live. With each stroke of the knife,  tiny little seeds, spilled out, dispersed, set free by the brokenness.  A sweet aroma rising as a result of the crushing. 

And what of our times of our brokenness and crushing....are we willing to be emptied of self  and poured out that others might live?  What seeds are sown in the hearts of those whose lives we touch?  Does the sweet aroma of faith in a faithful Father reach the fainting, faithless and fatherless?

Father wash me clean, give me a servants heart.  In my times of brokenness and crushing keep me faithful, that seeds of faith might be sown wherever I go and that the sweet aroma of the knowledge of Christ might be shared with those who are seeking.

For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. 2 Cor 2:15
