But they replied, "Don't waste your breath. We will continue to live as we want to, following our own evil desires." Jeremiah 18:12 NLT
Some people are going to reject God’s plans for their life. God will go to extreme measures to reach people, but God will allow people the freedom to reject God.
Consider your life for just a moment. How compliant are you to the will of God for your life? Are you willing to follow God wherever He may lead? What if following God involves extreme sacrifice, which it most often will? Will you follow God then? If doing God’s will involves total surrender will you still do His will?
You have the freedom to reject God’s plan for your life, at least on a short-term basis. Ultimately God is in control, but for today (if God tarries), you can live your life as you want to live it. God’s heart, however, is seeking people who will say, as Jesus did, “not my will, but THY will be done”. Does that describe your heart today? (Does it describe mine?)

I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.
