In the past, my prayer was that God would close the door if it was not His will, and that's what always seemed to happen. Lately, I'm trying to listen more to God and wait for Him. I want to do His perfect will, not just the permissive one. <br />Thanks for a very thought-provoking post.Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08788738933866178431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17856112.post-25676553789059784292011-06-03T15:26:32.304-04:002011-06-03T15:26:32.304-04:00Hello, I come to via another friends blog..

It speaks to SO much of what my life has been about.

(And think.)<br /><br />God's Will vs. human will in today's culture must also take into account that most evangelical churches are preaching the gospel of self and surrender to His Will has not only the human will to overcome, but the teaching of the "church."<br /><br />(You should blog more!!!)kalopoieohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17489462462733867086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17856112.post-39432287496041280932010-11-30T10:00:53.823-05:002010-11-30T10:00:53.823-05:00Its one way or the other, God's will or our wi...Its one way or the other, God's will or our will. Its sad that some like the boy in the picture choose their will over God's. We fail to realize what a tragic thing it really is to "get it our way." No we should want it God's way! It's a better way to go.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02652234142945839138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17856112.post-21533192050478473242010-11-30T09:58:06.484-05:002010-11-30T09:58:06.484-05:00Great quote; This is one of my favorites and had t...Great quote; This is one of my favorites and had to resist writing a "book" on it...lol.<br />We live in so much a society that has taught us to base things on our feelings, if it feels good it must be okay and I see so many close to me wrestling with giving control to God and not justify what they are doing as "He will understand" or "We have an agreement" as if He goes into personal contracts.<br /><br />It just had me mulling over...His will over Human will and just really encouraged a lot of thoughts!<br /><br />Love it and enjoy participating this week...Twinkle Mom @ Sunflower Faithhttp://sunflowerfaith.com/2010/11/30/there-are-two-kinds-of-people-an-in-other-words-moment/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17856112.post-35269534363300214892010-11-30T05:33:28.198-05:002010-11-30T05:33:28.198-05:00Thought provoking quote.
