Donna White Director of Finance Township of North Huron Nevertheless, I want Your will to be done, not mine! (J.R. Miller,“Help for the Day”) “Father, if You are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Nevertheless, I want Your will to be done, not mine!” Luke 22:42 The best thing possible for us, is always what God wills for us. Sometimes God’s will may be pain, or wordly loss, or sore bereavement. Yet His will is always love, and in simple acquiescence to this will, we shall always find our highest good. No prayer, therefore, is pleasing to God which does not end with this refrain of Gethsemane, “Nevertheless, I want Your will to be done, not mine!” This is also the way to peace. As we yield with love and joy, and merge our own will in our Father’s--the peace of God flows like a river into our souls. “Let the Lord’s will be done.” Acts 21:14 “It is the Lord. Let Him do what seems good to Him.” 1 Samuel 3:18 A Grace Gem Submitted by: Immanuel United Reformed Church, Listowel, ON 519-291-1956 Leading the way Local musician John Jewitt had the honour of piping the Blyth Legion Branch 420’s Colour Party into the annual Remembrance Day service at Blyth Community Memorial Hall on Nov. 11.
