There are four words we often forget when we pray….”According to His will”. These are not only words but a lifestyle that shapes all of our activity. We worship, pray and even love others according to His will. 
There should be no battle of wills. When We receive the gift of salvation we exchanged our will for His. He is the LORD, His ways and thoughts are not ours, in fact they are higher than our ways and thoughts (Is. 55:8-9). If the Father’s will is perfect why do we have such trouble surrendering our own for His?
We must fully embrace the truth that the LORD’s promises will provide for us much greater than anything we can cobble together for ourselves. In spite of all the hurt and poor examples of leadership and fatherhood we have seen and experienced, we are called to trust. 
May you reflect deeply today on the ultimate promise of God…a child born of a virgin in the little town of Bethlehem. None other than the Word Himself who became flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus, the one who would save us all from our sin. May this truth overwhelm your heart with joy and move you to know, live and speak this truth. For all of this is according to His will. .
