Day 5: Living in Alignment with God’s Will

**Reflection**

Living in alignment with God’s will is a lifelong journey, a daily choice to pursue His purpose over our own desires. It requires discipline, commitment, and a heart that is continually seeking God’s direction. The Apostle Paul speaks of forgetting what is behind and straining toward to what is ahead. This is not about ignoring our past but choosing not to be held back by it. Today, reflect on what it means to live in alignment with God’s will. Are there areas in your life where you are holding onto the past, allowing it to hinder your progress? What does it look like to press on toward the future God has for you, leaving behind the weights that slow you down?

Consider the steps you need to take to live more fully in God’s will. It could be letting go of past hurts, forgiving others, or even forgiving yourself. It might mean stepping out in faith in areas where you’ve been hesitant. Whatever it is, know that God is calling you upward, to a place of greater freedom and purpose. Today, commit to living a life that is fully aligned with God’s will. Press on toward the goal, knowing that the prize is not just in the future but in every step we take in obedience to Him.

**Prayer**

Heavenly Father, I commit to living in alignment with Your will. Help me to press forward, leaving behind past mistakes and regrets. I trust that You have a great purpose for my life and that You will guide me every step of the way. Strengthen my resolve to seek You daily and to live a life that brings glory to Your name. In Jesus' name, Amen.
