"I have come to
do your will, my God" Hebrews 10 v 7
What is God's will for my life, for your life, for our church life? If I know His will how do I go about doing it? What is it going to cost me? What will I have to sacrifice? The Hebrews were new Christians, desperately searching for how to be Christians, people of God in a time and place where everything around them was focused on their self will rather than God's will. Yet throughout scripture we are challenged to seek first the kingdom of God and what that calls us to be and to do.
Perhaps we could see
the period of Lent as a fast from fighting against the demands of our secular
societies and gorging ourselves on the will of God and work towards the moment
we can stand in front of God, like Christ, and say "Here I am.....I have
come to do your will, my God".
