We all in our life's try to figure out what God's Will is. What is our purpose? I came across this song the other day and it blessed me quite significantly. God's will can come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes we just need to get out of the way and let him do it!! (This is a Sista Staci Comment). I was reminded of this tonight in one of our talks. I have searched a long time for God's will for my life, and I have dreams that I wanted to meet. Although one of those is not meet yet, I feel like I am on the right track.
See, this year marks 10 years that I have been out of high school and 5 years out of college. I have learned a lot over the years and God has changed me a lot. Its been a great journey and its still not over. If you would have asked me 10 years ago if I would be back where I started then I would have told you that you were nuts. See, I recently started back at Mcdonalds, and I love it. Mcdonalds was my first real job exactly 10 years ago. Some of you might think I am nuts but really I am not. Fast food might not be the best job in some peoples perspective, but it is for me. God knows what he is doing, and really when you really look at it its a mission field for Family Ministry. See, Gods will for me is not the place where I am, its my attitude and how I perceive ministry where I am. Interesting uh....
God's will can be looked at in so many ways, but we need to be reminded that its not always where we are in the physical sense, but where our heart is. God can use you no matter where you are, only if you are willing to be used. In this song for instance, the little boy is God's will in Martinas life. He came along and she was searching for a long time for something. When he came along, she was touched in such a powerful way. At the end he says that I love you and so does God. How powerful. See, in my job a smile or just hand shake to let someone know that I care can speak volumes. I have already expereinced it already and got blessed at the same time. Its amazing how God can work isnt it.
So, listen and read the lyrics to this song. Know what Gods will is in your life weather its the place you work, the people you are around or a ministry that God has put you in. Be thankful and be blessed for all of it.

I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
It hid the braces on his legs at first
His smile was as bright as the August sun
When he looked at me
As he struggled down the driveway, it almost
Made me hurt
Will don't walk too good
Will don't talk too good
He won't do the things that the other kids do,
In our neighborhood
[Chorus:]
I've been searchin', wonderin', thinkin'
Lost and lookin' all my life
I've been wounded, jaded, loved and hated
I've wrestled wrong and right
He was a boy without a father
And his mother's miracle
I've been readin', writin', prayin', fightin'
I guess I would be still
Yeah, that was until
I knew God's Will
Will's mom had to work two jobs
We'd watch him when she had to work late
And we'd all laugh like I hadn't laughed
Since I don't know when
Hey Jude was his favorite song
At dinner he'd ask to pray
And then he'd pray for everybody in the world but him
[Chorus]
Before they moved to California
His mother said, they didn't think he'd live
And she said each day that I have him, well it's just
another gift
And I never got to tell her, that the boy
Showed me the truth
In crayon red, on notebook paper, he'd written
Me and God love you
I've been searchin', prayin', wounded, jaded
I guess I would be still
Yeah that was until...
I met God's Will on a Halloween night
He was dressed as a bag of leaves
Be blessed in Gods will..... Kelly
