Thine

”saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.“ ‭‭Luke‬ ‭22‬:‭42‬ ‭KJV‬‬

I’m in a bit of a place, and have been for a while now. My thoughts have been on this bitterness I’ve been drinking, begging for it to be removed. 

Or perhaps for me to be removed…

Sometimes our situation isn’t of our own design but is for the Will of our Father in Heaven. At least I hope that is the case. 

If not, Lord, please remove this cup, but in all things I hope to be submissive to Your Will and purpose for me. 

Because if nothing else, we are here to show the glory of God. We are the work of His hand. 

Jesus shows the example we are to follow. He says His purpose is to do the will of HIS Father. We are made to do the will of the Father, nothing more. We can do nothing on our own. 

We live and die for the Lord. Everything we do is for Him. 

“not my will, but thine, be done” Oh Lord, let this be my every breath.
