Thy Will be done
cjwood:
some time ago, i can't recall the exact year, but i was given a word from the Holy Spirit. i was going through a hard time physically and emotionally at the time, and i heard the Still Small Voice that said "when asking in prayer that God's Will be done, what could EVER be better than that. since God loves me above and beyond anything i could ever imagine, then His Will is the ABSOLUTELY best thing for me and my life, no matter what i was going through. i/we may not know what His Will is for any of us, but we can be assured that it IS for our BEST.

Aren't we supposed to pray without ceasing?

I don't want to start a whole new thread because this all ties in to the same thoughts I am having.
8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
9 Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
10 For they disciplined us for a short time as seemed best to them, but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.
11 All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.
Is cancer discipline/chastisement? If so, who is being disciplined the afflicted or the loved ones?
