![]() How do we know God’s will for our life? That is a huge question that many of us really want the answer to. It really doesn’t much matter how old we are, or where we currently are in our socioeconomic condition. Most of us want to know that we are in God’s will. I believe the answers to these and other questions about the future are right in front of us. It isn’t a mystery, God isn’t keeping His will a secret or behind a curtain like the game show “Let’s Make a Deal!” What kind of a father would hide his desires from his kids? Imagine if you asked your mom or dad what they thought about something that was important to you, and they just ignored you, or made you guess what they were thinking? Our Heavenly Father loves us and is intricately involved and interested in our life. We don’t have to guess or cover our eyes and hope we know what His will is. I have found in my own life that God guides me one step at a time. I have always been a “big picture” kind of guy, and always looking toward the big goal. I have had to learn to experience the joy in the journey. You know what I mean? …” I know I should do this…but I would much rather do that!” I can hear His voice telling me…”one step, an obedient step, at a time… is my will. The answer is so easy that we can miss it. I didn’t like the answer because I wanted something much more grand and powerful. Yet, one step of obedience in faith, will open up another and another, and soon we are at that place we so desired to be. Right now no matter where you are or what you’ve gone through, be encouraged you are merely one step away from being in God’s will, and on His path. God’s will for you and me is first and foremost, fellowship with Him. In His sermon on the mount Matthew 6:25 Jesus taught us “not to worry about tomorrow for tomorrow has enough worries of its own.” But rather seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto thee.” Perhaps tonight you are waiting for direction from God for your life in a relationship, or a career opportunity, or in a situation at work, etc.? The answer is right in front of you. Thanks for letting me share. Randy Young
