We spend a great deal of our time and energy, our minds and hearts, trying to figure out what we want. It is really important to us...we feel that we are entitled, all of us, to get what we want. If we don't get what we want, we demand an explanation for why we are being singled out for such mistreatment. We have a right to know what we want and to get it, because only we are right about it. Nobody can make that decision but ME. Yes, that is probably how most people we know in the USA feel...but how about other countries, other cultures? Well, if they are given the opportunity to be preoccupied with figuring out what they want and then getting it, we assume that that is how they will behave. That is human nature, right? That is common to all of us, right? Isn't that what "free will" is all about, being able to choose freely what we want and to settle for nothing else? Today we are going to look at things from another perspective. We are going to ask ourselves what God wants for us rather than what we want. We are going to look at His wish list, not my wish list and your wish list.
