God knows what He is doing! He does not need us to whisper in His ear something that we think He needs to know. After Saul had been blinded on the road to Damascus where he was heading to persecute the believers, the Lord called a man by the name of Ananias to go and lay hands on him to restore his sight. Ananias tried to inform God about how evil this man was. God did not need information, He needed obedience.<\/p>\n<p>It is easy to fall into the dangerous business of wanting our own way instead of seeking to discover God\u2019s way. Let\u2019s face it, we can hardly remember what happened yesterday much less what is going to happen later today or in the days to come. It is so much better to lay things out before our all loving and all powerful God and ask that His will be done in our life.<\/p>\n<p>It is not easy doing this when our life or the life of a loved one is in the balance. It is not easy yielding to His will when finances are near zero. It is not easy bowing and saying <em>yes<\/em> when every fiber of our being is screaming no! But we will never know true peace until we utter those words,<span style=\"color: #c40000;\"> \u201cYour will be done!\u201d \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Blessings dear hearts.
