WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO MY LORD?

Who loves Jesus Christ with all his heart, but he who says with the apostle: Lord, what do you want me to do? (He 9.6)

When you want what God desires, you are looking for your true good, for the Lord rewards with joy any thought that gives pleasure to him. And it does not leave without reward any tribulation borne with patience and to conform to Him.

But our conformity to the divine will will be whole and without reserve, constant and irrevocable, to which you must direct your desires, actions and prayers.

There are people given to prayer who would like to enter into ecstasies and abductions in order to reach the supernatural union in this way. But true union with God consists in making our wishes ours.

Many times we say and repeat many times: Lord, what do you want me to do? But if misfortune ensues, you immediately lose your calm, without stopping to discern if it is God's will that you calmly incorporate that contrariety into your life. Then you lament your bad luck, as if a kind of destiny wants you to lead an unhappy life, this happens a lot.

If you want to be the happiest person in the world, accommodate your will to what happens to you, without leaning, as the Bible says, to the direction of all wind.

For there are personans similar to the wind vane that move according to the air blow: If it comes bonaceous and according to what you want at the time, walk meek and happy: but if it blows contrary and things do not come to the extent of your will, See them sad and with angry faces. They never have peace.

Blessed is he who lives totally abandoned to the divine love. Neither the prosperity exalts him nor does adversity hurt him. The will of God is the rule for his will, and he does nothing but what God wants, and he wants nothing but what God does.

Will you finally throw yourself into the arms of the good father, leaving him the care of your person and your interests, preserving for you the desire to please and serve him?

Hi @angi.maricastro!

Good question that the Apostle Paul asked of God, if today God asks us, what can you do for me? we must answer:

Oh man, he has declared to you what is good, and what Jehovah asks of you: only to do justice, and to love mercy, and to humble yourself before your God.
Micah 6: 8

We should do everything as unto the Lord. Even eating and drinking we do to Him. It is amazing how life can be falling all around us and we can stay in perfect peace. Sorrow lasts for a night, but joy comes in the morning. Great post! Amen!

Nice words, it reminds us with a lot of wisdom and a correct written language that we must always stay firm in our faith and that the bad moments are just those moments, and if they happen it is for us to learn from them. Excellent sister, blessings.
