The Will Of God

The will of God ought to be a source of strength and satisfaction to the child of God, just as if he sat down at a sumptuous feast.

If what we are doing tears us down instead of builds us up, then we may well question whether it is the will of God for us.

Our Lord didn't look on the Father's will as a heavy burden or a distasteful task. He viewed His work as a nourishment of His soul. Doing the Father's will fed Him and satisfied Him inwardly.

Psalm 40: I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart.

Have Thine own way, Lord;Have Thine own way.

Thou art the Potter, I am the clay.

Mold me and make me after Thy will

While I am waiting, yielded and still.
