Your Will

Luke 22:42-43 NRSV

“Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me; yet, not my will but yours be done.” Then an angel from heaven appeared to him and gave him strength.”

There are so many times in our lives that what we think we want, or what we think we need may not be what God has for us. It’s hard, but he has a plan. What we learn is that - yes, we can tell him what we want, but submit our will to him. That little major bit right there. When Jesus submitted his will, and angel strengthened him. When we say, “not my will but yours” hmm. It lightens our load-whatever it is. 

Today, Lord- you know what is happening. You know what we need. Your will Lord . . .Your will. Let that be our prayer. enough for now.
