Discovering God's Will


There is one question that tends to perplex each one of us as we face the task of making daily decisions. Some decisions are harder than others. When it comes down to it, if we are true seekers of God, we eventually get to the place where we really want to know what God's will is and the questions becomes, "Why am I here and what am I supposed to do."

In our study, we discovered that there is God's Providential Will, God's Moral Will, and God's Personal Will for You. Our action steps are:

Learn God’s providential will.

Surrender to God’s moral will.

Discover God’s personal will for your life.

We studied the first 2 in Weds night bible study and now we will complete the study with a study in the book of Esther. So, each blog entry will deal with the questions on study guide #3. If you do not have study guide #3 or you would like to have #1 &#2 please e-mail Pastor Rebecca at pastorbec@verizon.net. All studies can be e-mailed.

The Book of Esther:
Read the entire book of Esther to get an understanding of the context. Who was Esther, and how was she guided into God's will for her life? From whom did she ask for directions? What did she do? What kind of character did she have? Post your observations here as we have open dialogue. Share your observations: What do you appreciate? What are you learning? Do you see any applications for your life?

I look forward to this...this is a good thing. Pastor Reb
