Psalms 40:8 NLT I take joy in doing your will, my God, for your instructions are written on my heart.”


Doing the will of God won’t be pleasant to our flesh, but our spirits (the real us) love doing the will of God. 

Our love for doing the will of God is out of gratitude for what He’s done for us. It’s not payback, because we’ll never be able to pay Him back for what He’s done for us. But, it’s gratitude.

So, think about all that He’s done for you, let go of that fear and encourage that lady you’ve never introduced yourself to. Give some money to that homeless guy you see all the time. Be bold in that difficult discussion you need to have with your friend. And trust God when things seem illogical.

All of this and more is the will of God. If we don’t do it, who will? Obey the will of God, which is in His word, and do it with joy.
