Many of us go through life with not a clue as to what we are supposed to be doing. We just “go where the wind blows us.” But yet, I do believe that we all have some idea of what we should be doing. Though minute of an inkling as it may be. The problem is that we just can’t get over our own self.

Many times we spend our life in a constant state of procrastination. We tell ourselves that we cannot do what God wants us to do yet because we have to get through school or get married first or have kids or get rich! Then and only then will we be able to truly focus on doing God’s will for our life!  We are constantly putting god’s plan for our life off, waiting for a more convenient time. We think that God has to work on our time. If we do not know what God wants us to do by lunch, then He will just have to wait until tomorrow because the rest of the days’ schedule is full.

But then it wouldn’t be God’s will would it? It would be our will. Our prerogative. Our priorities. Our life with which to do whatever we will. Once we realize that our time and God’s time are totally different things, then and only then can we begin to understand what His will is. It is God’s schedule first and then our schedule.

Matthew 6:33, I believe is the key to understanding. It says, “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all of these things will be given to you as well.”  We have to understand that God’s will is not some distant, inconceivable idea we are suppose to question for the rest of our lives and if we get it wrong we will be smitten by the almighty smitter.  If in everything that we do we seek the kingdom of God first, we will be doing that which lines up with His will. We will have a hope and a purpose and will walk in the victory of that.

This can be your life. This can be the victory in your Christian walk. It is not by your might, or power, but by the will of God.
