His Will, Not Mine

May the God of peace, who through the blood of the eternal covenant brought back from the dead, our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, equip you with everything good for doing his will, and may he work in us what is pleasing to him, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. Hebrews 13:20, 21


This was one of the verses in my devotion today and it really stood out to me. If you are struggling - with anything - pray that he would work in you what is pleasing to him. It's easy to go to God with all kinds of things that we want or even need. Sometimes we ask for good things because we have an idea in our head of what our lives or service to him should look like, but if we ask him to equip us to do his will and to work out what is pleasing to him, we can't go wrong.
