Belonging In The Will Of God Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 15, 2022

WHAT GOD'S WILL IS NOT 1. God’s will is not something that you find For some reason we tend to have this idea that we must discover God’s will for our lives. That’s not how it works. God is the one who finds YOU. Abraham did not choose God; God chose Abraham. David did not choose to become ...read more
