God, if you're in it, I want it - If you're not, I don't. Seek God's hand. Moses said to God in Exodus 33:15, "Lord, if you don't personally go with us, don't make us leave this place." MSG - Lord, if your presence doesn't take the lead here, call this trip off right now."

Walking in God's will should make life easier, right? Being on the right path should always feel good, right? Surely God's divine will comes with guarantees, stamps of approval and fast passes, right? Nope. Not in my Bible. It's easy to say things like, "If it's God's will, he will make it happen." Okay, so
Your heart is up to you. How you perceive things, how you feel about things, and what you do about those things is completely your own choice. God will not force your heart to change. Proverbs 4:23, "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." If your heart gets
Does God ever get frustrated with us? Is there ever a point where our loving heavenly Father gets angry with his girls? Yes - but it's likely not over the things you've been worried about. We screw things up. We fail to get it right. We struggle. We fall short. These are the things we
