Knowing God’s Will — Summary
The critical shifts in life always come when the desire to harmonize with our existence becomes greater than our fear of the process of change. The outcome of any particular shift is already success-full the minute you honestly choose to believe that: “I am completely willing to serve God’s Will over my own.” The more purely an action harmonizes with God’s Will, the more obvious its divine characteristics (i.e. its “Good Fruit”) will become, and the more Power-full that choice will be once you to follow through with it …
There is no such thing as only one “best choice” in any given moment. Many have paralyzed themselves by making no choice at all rather than risk making the “wrong choice” (or missing out on the “best alternative”, or waiting for the “better time” etc). It has been my personal experience that there are always hundreds of “best choices” for each of us in every single moment of our Lives; hundreds of opportunities for us to courageously Love others in harmony with God’s Will . We may not ever actualize the most-powerful of these options, and yet our challenge is merely to actualize one of them as often as possible …
In essence, there can never be a “failure” in your life when your actions’ intentions are based in selfless Compassion for others (“You have Seen the Purpose of the Lord, how He is Compassionate and Merciful.” ~ James 5:11) … Your ego may try to convince you that you are “too small” or “too weak” or “too inexperienced” to fulfill your Life Mission. This fear is irrelevant (“Be steadfast and immovable, always excelling in the Work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labor is never in vain.” ~ 1 Corinthians 15:58 & “And this is the boldness we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His Will, He hears us.” ~ 1 John 5:14) … Contentment can be lived moment-to-moment whether we fully complete our Calling or not (“The Works that the Father has given Me to complete, the Works that I am Doing, testify on my behalf …” ~ Jesus in John 5:36), for the journey truly is the destination as far as God’s Will is concerned. Life is only found in its living. The quantity of things “done”, completed, “accomplished”, or even commenced matters not to God. All that matters is that we set ourselves in motion and strive to live as agents of His perfect Love (“Like good stewards of the manifold Grace of God, Serve one another with whatever Gift each of you has received.” ~ 1 Peter 4:10) …
