Psalm 40:8 “I desire to do Your Will, O my God…”

The heartfelt obedience that’s required by God is a moment by moment series of choices on our part. We can either submit our will to God’s as Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane when He prayed, “Yet not as I will, but as You Will.” Or we can stubbornly stand on our own rights & ambitions…insisting we’ll do what we want. But when we come to that fork in the road & our choices have taken us farther rather than closer to God…we need to repent of our defiance & ask the Lord to open our eyes and ears to His truth. (Isaiah 35:5) It’s then we’ll see that God’s Will for our life is only a good thing. (Philippians 2:13)
