The Will of God
Have you ever felt hopeless? Have you ever felt lost? You turn on the news and it's just more negative headlines. Have you ever wondered if you're in the will of God? Read and meditate on the following poem and be encouraged in the Lord today...
The will of God will never take you,
where the grace of God cannot keep you,
where the arms of God cannot support you,
where the riches of God cannot supply your needs,
where the power of God cannot endow you.
The will of God will never take you,
where the Spirit of God cannot work through you,
where the wisdom of God cannot teach you,
where the army of God cannot protect you,
where the hands of God cannot mold you.
The will of God will never take you,
where the love of God cannot enfold you,
where the mercies of God cannot sustain you,
where the peace of God cannot calm your fears,
where the authority of God cannot overrule for you.
The will of God will never take you,
where the comfort of God cannot dry your tears,
where the Word of God cannot feed you,
where the miracles of God cannot be done for you,
where the omnipresence of God cannot find you.

God works all things out for our good. His purpose is fulfilled in our obedient lives, even if we don't see or understand at this exact moment what is happening or even why it is happening.
Faith says "I believe in God."
Trust says, "I submit to His will."
We need both faith and trust in our walk with God. And there is no such thing as 99.9% trust. You must trust God with all your heart.
