DAILY READINGS: Exodus 38; Psalms 90-91; Acts 22:22 to 23:11
I came down from heaven, not to do Mine own will, but the will
of Him that sent Me. John 6:38
One of the many virtues of Christ is His utt er commitment to do the
Father’s will. There was no independence nor selfi shness in His impeccable
person. What about us? Can we truly say, “I came not to do
my own will, but God’s will”? We are taught to pray that way in Matthew
6, “Thy will be done on earth.” God has a will and a plan for our
lives. Will we, like Christ, embrace that will and enroll in the school
of obedience, saying, “Not my will, but Thine”? —Carl Knott
When we walk with the Lord, in the light of His Word,
What a glory He sheds on our way!
While we do His good will, He abides with us still,
And with all who will trust and obey. —J. H. Sammis
