Is God’s Will a Mystery—or a Relationship?

Is God’s Will a Mystery—or a Relationship?

We often talk about “finding God’s will” like it’s buried treasure—something hidden, hard to find, and reserved for the spiritually elite. But what if God’s will isn’t a riddle to solve, but a relationship to walk in?

The Bible tells us, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is” (Romans 12:2). In other words, God’s will becomes clearer as we draw closer to Him.

God’s will isn’t just about big decisions—it’s about the posture of your heart. He’s less interested in which job you take or which town you live in, and more interested in whether you’re becoming the kind of person who loves, forgives, serves, and obeys.

So the real question is not just What should I do?

It’s Who am I becoming?

God’s will starts with that. And it grows from there.
