What Does God Want from Me? Let me lead you to a life of faith 1-16-22

I remember an argument between an older brother and my Father, which went on for some time. Finally I heard my brother wail, “Daddy, what do you want from me? I just don’t know what you want!” The argument calmed after that, and I went on about my business. That was a fair question though, wasn’t it?

 

We may ask that of our parents or spouse, our children, and maybe even of God. “What do you want from me?”

 

Today I begin a series of messages in which try to imagine, using passages in the Bible, the ways God might answer that question. God’s first “answer” is simple: “Let me lead you to a life of faith.”

 

We were created by God to be a people of faith – it is ‘hard wired’ into our brains! When we practice a godly faith we live and feel better, and everything about our lives are more fulfilling. When we fail in the practice of faith we stumble into sin, and suffer the consequences. The faith God offers us in Jesus can bring joy into our lives, and help us avoid the destruction that sin always brings. This faith from God is offered to everyone, and comes without cost – we must only receive it, and follow God through His son, Jesus.
