Ephesians 6:6 - Doing God's Will.

Ephesians 6:6 (NLT) Try to please them all 
the time, not just when they are watching you. 
As slaves of Christ, do the will of God with 
all your heart.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

   We are admonished to seek out the will of 
the Lord. In Ephesians 5:17 we read, "Therefore 
do not be unwise, but understand what the will 
of the Lord is."  
   Some people, however, misunderstand the 
will of God. They think it must be a harsh, 
joyless thing, intended to make us miserable. But 
listen: God's will comes from God's love. 
   If you love someone, will you want to 
make him miserable? Will you go out of your way 
to punish him if he doesn't do exactly what you 
tell him to? No, of course not - not if you 
really love him. 
   The same is true with God. God loves you, 
and because He loves you, He cares what happens 
to you. He loves you too much to let you wander 
aimlessly through life, without meaning or purpose. 
The Bible says, "You will show me the path of 
life; in Your presence is fullness of joy" (Ps. 
16:11). 
   Covet God's will for your life more than 
anything else. To know God's will - and to do it - is 
life's greatest joy. 
   A Christian will never experience true 
contentment or peace outside of Gods will.  We 
experience the most joy not when we are living in 
material abundance but when we are living in 
obedience to the Lord.  [Hope for Each Day by Billy 
Graham]
