If you want to know God’s will, spend time with Him.

One of the mysteries of life is the will of God. We desperately want to know what God wants us to do, but we’re not really sure how to find out. While it’s true that we will never know all of God’s will (after all, He’s God), we can know a lot of what He wants us to do by spending time with Him.

Think about it on a human level. The more you get to know someone, the more you know what that person is like, and the more you know what that person likes. That’s what God’s will is all about–knowing what God is like and knowing what He likes. So you could say that the only way to really know God’s will is to really know God.

How do you do that? By spending time with Him. And how do you spend time with God? By reading the Bible, His personal message to you, and by talking with Him through prayer as often as you can.

Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light for my path.

Psalm 119:105
