The Difference Between Persistence and Demanding God's Will

My wife tells me at times that i don't have enough faith because i won't claim the desired outcome. When dealing with journeying through the wall, i've asked god for things to happen which did not happen. And so yes, i would say that a a real corps to what we're talking about here is surrendering ourselves to the river. If you coud picture god's will as a river that's flowing by the holy pirit our role is to flow with that river and do what the father is doing.
