Colossians 1:9

Ice is not one of my favorite things, and winter has gone on long enough. We couldn’t get my car out this morning so we had to carpool which makes me wish I didn’t work so late in the evening. Hopefully i can free it in the morning for tomorrow though. We are supposed to get some more snow so keep us in your prayers my friend. Hope you have a good weekend.

For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding 

Colossians 1:9 

Colosse was known for its faith and love for people and Paul rejoiced for them. He also prayed for them constantly. The subject of the prayer was for the people to have knowledge, wisdom and understanding of God’s will. 

We all want to know what God’s will for our lives is. That alone is a constant question on our thoughts as we grow and mature as believers. For some it seems like his will comes out loud and clear, while others His will can seem hard to discover. Either way we must be in constant prayer for his will and for understanding in what He wants for our lives. 

Our prayers should be filled with the desire to understand His will for us in life. We know He has a direction for us and a plan but we do not always know what it is. Most of the time we won’t know until after we have lived, what the ultimate destination is for our life. We can trust Him to fulfill His plan as we believe in his perfect will. Pray for wisdom and He will be with you.
