Grant Partrick reminds us of the ultimate “yes,” that Christ gave in the Garden of Gethsemane. Faced with death and, even worse, separation from His Father for the first time in history, Jesus looked at what was in front of Him and said, “Not my will, but Yours.” Our obedience is measured in the same way. How do we respond to God when our desires come to an intersection with His? What will our response be when faced with a circumstance where what we want isn’t God’s will for our lives? Will we make the same decision Jesus did? Will we say to God, “Not my will, but Yours?”
