Your will be done

Praise!
My dear beloved Youth in Christ,

Jesus fell on His face twice and prayed, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will” (Matt. 26:39, 42).

What does it look like for God’s will to be done on earth? It means that you submit to the burden God has called you to carry.

None of us will ever be called to carry what the Savior carried. But God has given to each of us burdens that we must bear, things we would rather not have to face.

Christians need to be careful that prayer is not just a request for material blessings and a comfort zone, but also a request for a positive attitude to accept whatever God's will is.

As you consider the burdens you carry today, pray, “Your will be done,” asking God to give you the strength to carry them.

Beloved Father, give our children the grace of the Holy Spirit, the Counselor and Comforter, for good choices and perfect goal setting. In His Holy Name, Amen.
Jesus loves you!
