“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity."
John 17:20-23
In complete discipleship there are no options - no choices - only that the will of the father be done in me. In despair - in sadness - in solace - these are emotions that must be broken free for the will of God to be complete. There is no longer "I" - just "him." The one who makes me clean - his will is my will.
I am but a bondservant to Jesus Christ - in suffering - in pain - the Lord's will be done. For God is the truth - in this pain - it too shall pass - for the Lord God desires we live in peace and joy with him. My redeemer - my Lord - My Jesus.
God is not concerned about the plans you have designed for your life. God is concerned about his will being done in you such you will live the life he has prepared for you. This only happens through following Christ.
