    Desiring God's Will

    Aligning Our Hearts with the Heart of God

    The Spiritual Journey

    by David G. Benner
    Foreword by Thomas H. Green

    Most people think of God's will as something to be found or as the receiving of guidance from God when making decisions. Too often, however, the problem is not that we don't know what God desires for our lives, but rather that we just don't want to do what we already know he wants. How might our wills be changed so that we become both willing and able to do what God asks of us? In Desiring ...
