Decisions?

Often we find it hard to make a decision, even paralyzed by the fear of getting it wrong. The weight of the decision may feel like more than we can bear.  Some people write pros and cons out on paper, others just try to sort it all in their heads. But let’s face it making some decisions can be so stressful and frustrating!

It is always good to seek advise from an expert for big decisions, that’s biblical-to seek wise council, and it goes with out saying that you take everything to God; prayer should be a big part of any decision.

I know what you’re thinking, “I’ve tried those things, and it doesn’t help!”

There is no magic formula that you can work out on paper to be sure it's the right decision. Let’s be real, it is unlikely that God will send an angel to tell you what to do, but God still can through your prayer.

I don’t always get it right, but for me it is peacefulness. Sometimes the decision I make looks like the wrong one in the beginning, that is because I cannot see the whole picture, but God does; and when I finally do too it’s like an “Ah ha moment”.  Other times I may not know until I get to heaven why things went the way they did, but I followed where I felt God leading.

The most important thing to remember is that God is for you, and if He is for you who can be against you? He is guiding you every step of the way in making the decision. 

Psalms 23:3 “He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to His name.”

Decisions are tough- making them without God is tougher.
