Follow God's will

Luke 9:7-9


The Lord was displeased with the plans to build the temple.  The Jews are not sacrificing enough; they want to be served rather than serve.  Get the wood and build the temple, says the Lord.

Herod was anxious about Jesus.  But he didn't quite come close to knowing who Jesus was except that he only felt attracted to his words.

There are two types of persons: those who follow their own wills and those who follow God's will.

In as much as people are inclined to be attracted to Jesus' words, they don't come close to actually doing His will.

Herod did not even come close to knowing about Jesus because he was filled with his own lies.

May we be humble enough to admit not following his will.  Then we can try harder to listen to and follow him.
