God’s Will, not My Will
Did you notice that as a child we learn to trust our parents, but as we get older we tend to get more skeptical, and trusting people can seem really challenging? Have you been hurt along the way, after trusting someone and allowing yourself to become vulnerable? And so, we tend to resist. Jesus, in knowing that death awaited Him in the coming hours, prays in the Garden of Gethsemane, “Nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” This is the prayer of faith, and it’s the proclamation of God’s faithfulness to Jesus, and to us! New Testament Reading: Matthew 26:36-39
From Series: "Thy Will Be Done"
“Not as I will, but as you will,” Jesus prayed to his Father the night before he went to the cross for our salvation. And that is our prayer as well this Lent as we seek to do God’s will in our lives, as we draw near to the observance of Christ’s suffering, death and resurrection during Holy Week. Please join us each Sunday and Wednesday Service throughout Lent with each service in the series focusing on a different aspect of God’s will at work among us. Biblical characters will be used as insightful reference points each week to guide us in following our Lord more nearly day by day. The series will be complimented by a daily prayer booklet that coincides with the services and prayers.
