THOUGHTS ON GOD'S WILL

April 4, 2007
by Andy

As followers of Christ, it's always apropriate to seek God's will and strive to center ourselves in His purposes. And this article is just a simple compilation of quotes and thoughts to encourage and remind us of how this is done.

Joy Meets Hunger ... "As Frederick Buechner said so well, God's call to us will always be that place where 'our deepest joy meets the world's great hunger.'" [from 5-Day Devotional Study - 2007 Week 13 / Tuesday, http://www.northlandchurch.net/]

Testing Your Faith ... from James 1:2-4,12 (NAS) "Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him."

Here's another good one:

Ephesians 3:13,20-21 (NAS)

"Therefore I ask you not to lose heart at my tribulations on your behalf, for they are your glory.

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us,

to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen."
