Excerpt from the book The Holy Will of God: A Short Rule of Perfection - It would do us well to begin in the middle of the writers main point which is thus, “the chief business lies in searching out what is the Will of God in all things. The profit does not consist in knowing it, but in doing it…” We do God’s will by doing that which we know he would want us to do and not in doing the thing which we most wish to do. We must seek the profit of God and not the profit of self.
