Walking in His will is laying down our will.

Last night at church we were talking about the will of God. So many scriptures excited me and stirred my heart.
Earlier in the week I had been studying about the will of God. At that moment I felt a shift in my spirit.
The cry of my heart was Lord change my will to be yours.
I want my desires to reflect His purpose. I want my life to draw others to Him. I want Jesus to shine off of me. I want to smell like I have been in His presence.

I have plans, dreams and hopes. I can lay them all down if they don’t align with His plan.
Walking in His will is laying down our will. Crucifying our flesh and our desires. It is total surrender.
That is a place God is calling us too. A place of complete surrender and trust.
A place that says God whatever you want I’ll do it. Wherever you say go, I’ll go. When you say stand still I will obey.

Psalms 40:8
8 I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart
