Jesus' example to us continues to be shown. He says that He is not just going about life the way He wants to, but He is following the will or the plan of God Almighty.
The word "will" is used in the Bible often.... "The will of the Father". A will in our modern language is one that lays out a plan in a written legal instrument. It states the wishes of someone after they die. A will is a PLAN. The point is that God has a will or a plan for my life and yours. The decisions we make, big or small need to be purposed in God's plan for us. Something as small as, should I buy this book to read...... or rent this movie to watch? Or something as life changing as...What career should I choose?; Who should I marry? or; What church should I attend?. All of these things need to be brought before the Lord to seek his direction. We need to seek His will for our lives. God's purpose in our life is paramount in an effective spiritual life.
In seeking God's will for our lives often many questions come up. Why am I here? What is God's purpose for my life? These are normal questions to ask yourself in certain stages of one's life. God does have a will/plan for you. It's a matter of getting closer and closer to Him so you might walk on the right path. The book Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren is one of the best books 
I've read that helps you understand your God given purpose in life. Having the Bible open for reference while reading this book will give you tools to start a journey on unveiling God's purpose for your life. God has an adventure waiting for us if we choose to step out of our safe and secure lives. Our faith in God is shown in the open seas where there is a vast world to explore. A safe harbor is needed at times, but it is not a place where faith is realized. When we move to discover our purpose, God will ask us to step out of our save and comfortable lives and go into the unknown, the ever-changing open sea, where we will need to rely on Him to show us the way, just like Jesus does!

Give me the courage, strength and perseverance to do Your Will. Amen.
