John 6:39 NIV : And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all those he has given me,
In this excerpt Jesus is explaining what is God's will for His being here, He's been given the task of caring for those whom GOD has given unto Him. You too, have been saved by graced to do so, have been given children, family members, co-workers, a neighborhood and need I go on? All of these people have been divinely placed in your life's path, and the question is "What Are You Doing with them?" Have you lost from friends, family, co-workers..etc because you were so busy loving GOD/JESUS that you really didn't love them where they were? Do you care for, or about any of these people in such a way that you've loved them to Christ? Jesus' desire was that he lose none of them, is this your desire for the people he's blessed to be in your life? Jesus told the disciples when they were trying to discover which commandments were the greatest, and He told them to simply love God, and love people. Love is an action word, not just a adjective....to begin our week of discovering "Are You In The Will" ask yourself who have you lost, and make it today's purpose to lovingly locate them, and love on them.
FATHER give us eyes to see, and ears to hear the cries of those whom you've blessed to be characters in our lives stories so that we may play the role you designed for us, to love them back to you. Amen
Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Matt. 7:21) Often times we struggle in our walk wondering if we are in the will of God. The will of God isn't constantly changing, nor is it really hidden from us, and it's simply found in His Word, so we can simply open up GOD's Word, and read what IS HIS will, and get in it! Prayerfully this week you will discover "Are You In The Will (of God)?
