b'Do you ever wrestle over what God\\u2019s will is for your life? When I graduated high school, I was quite anxious about choosing the \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153right path.\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d I grappled with decisions about college, wrote lists of pros and cons, prayed and sought God in tears. Since then, I\\u2019ve had other largedecisions where I responded similarly.\\nLately, I\\u2019ve felt like God has been prompting my heart to dig into what His will is for us, not just in daily decisions or even the life-altering ones, but overall. First and perhaps most obvious, God wants all people to be saved (1 Timothy 2:3-4). This is the crux of life, the very heartbeat of our existence. When a crowd of people asked Jesus what God required of them, Jesus answered, \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (John 6:29). The apex of God\\u2019s will is that everyone who looks to Jesus has eternal life (John 6:40).\\nUnder the canopy of being in Christ, what then is the will of God? I believe His will is to make us more like Jesus Christ. This can be accomplished in many different ways, none of which need to be labeled \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153the right\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d or \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153the wrong\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d way, as I once fretted. If we belong to Jesus, He promises to work in and through us to fulfill His good purpose (Philippians 2:13). And He equips us with everything we need to do His will (Hebrews 13:20-21).\\nGod\\u2019s plan for His children is to give us hope in Jesus and a future with Him. He wants us to remain in His love, and from this place of connection with Him, to love others (John 15:9-17). As we are transformed by the renewing of our minds and seek to live according to God\\u2019s Word, we will be able to determine what His will is (Romans 12:1-2). Through Jesus, we have \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153everything we need for a godly life\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d (2 Peter 1:3), and we can rest in this promise. \\u2022 Savannah Coleman\\n\\u2022 Have you ever felt like there was one \\xe2\\u20ac\\u0153right\\xe2\\u20ac\\x9d path for your life? How might today\\u2019s Bible passages speak into this? \\nAnd we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son\\u2026 Romans 8:28-29 (NIV)\\n\\xa0\\nRead Verses:\\nPhlm|Luke.4.18'
