[Abba San]

The second place the Bible says, "This is God's will," is:

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NIV)

God wants you to live a life of joy and prayer and gratitude regardless of your circumstances. Why? Because you are in Christ and always will be no matter what the trials of this life may be.

Here I am chomping on the bit like a race horse on race day wondering what the third installment is. So like do I got to wait till the next episode of Abba San live to find out?

 

[Abba San]

lol - okay - here is a freebie.

There are, of course, many passages that give us sound guidance on what will please God - but there is only one other place where it says this is God's will:

For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish men. 1 Peter 2:15 (NIV)

I think this is closely linked to:

However, do this with gentleness and respect, keeping your conscience clear, so that when you are accused, those who denounce your Christian life will be put to shame. 1 Peter 3:16 (HCSB)

Now - what am I going to do next week?
