God Thinking 55 - Exploration of the heart 3

"Do you know what most of us want of God today?

We want God to accept us - our sacrifice! - the one we decide to give - just like Cain - whether it is what God asked for or not.

Whether you are living in God’s will or living out of God’s will, God is preparing you to live in God’s will.

When you decide to be in the will of God, you have already been prepared, because God has been preparing you all along. 

It’s true, God used every experience that you have been through (good and bad) (happy and sad) to hone you and sharpen you and create in you a desire to know Him.

Even when you are outside of the will of God, God is working on your behalf, turning what you messed up into a testimony that will declare beyond a shadow of a doubt, that God was carrying you when you were out of His will and walking along beside you when you are in His will.

God has taken all of your talents and skills, your characteristics and personalities, your temperament to season you for service to God and man."
