And to expose our hearts to truth and consistently refuse or neglect to obey the impulses it arouses is to stymie the motions of life within us and, if persisted in,to grieve the Holy Spirit into silence.
A.W. Tozer

This is a painful truth that we ought to really take a look at.
How many times have you gone to Church to hear a great message or even read it for yourself and in the moment you are encouraged, exhorted and often reproved but you leave and do nothing with it. Well this is exactly what his quote is stating. We always want to know the will of God yet when that prompting inside of us happens we more times then not neglect it. In case you weren't sure, that prompting inside of us is the Holy Spirit who has been sent to live and dwell inside of us as believers to empower us to do the very will of God. So let me ask the tough question here do you really want to know the will for God for your life?
