“When our hearts are prepared and willing to do the Lord's will, whatever it may be, nine-tenths of the difficulty is already past.”

George Müller · Autobiography of George Müller: How to Ascertain the Will of God

Scripture

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Reflection

In his autobiography, George Müller shares the secret of seeking God's will: first, bring your heart to a state where you have no will of your own in a given matter. When the heart is prepared and truly willing to obey the Lord's will, nine-tenths of the difficulty is already past. Today, we received another letter from a pastor in Pakistan. As our foundation seeks to connect further with them and offer practical support, we simply ask the Lord to lead. First align our hearts, and then ask the Lord to open the way.
