We make choices almost every minute of our lives. Each
occasion presents an opportunity to choose, usually with many possibilities. (Brown, blue or red dress? . . . buy the
movie or just rent it? . . . send the kids to private school or home school
them?) We are bombarded daily with decisions, decisions, and more
decisions.
But how do you handle the ones that are life changing, when
you aren’t comfortable with your options? What should you do?
A good motto for life should be, “When in doubt; don’t!”
. . . Don’t do anything!
. . . Don’t act in a hasty manner, just because the pressure is on!
. . . Don’t choose an answer that suits the moment, you may regret it.
. . . Don’t jump into a situation, you know in your knower, isn’t right.
. . . Don’t act in a hasty manner, just because the pressure is on!
. . . Don’t choose an answer that suits the moment, you may regret it.
. . . Don’t jump into a situation, you know in your knower, isn’t right.
If you are doubting, just STOP!
The Bible says in Psalm 119:105, “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” In Psalm
73:24 it states, “You guide me with your
counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory.” The Lord is promising
to guide, lead, direct and complete our path with glory AFTER we allow Him to shine
His light upon us. Give God time!
He will come through. The Lord will show you the right way,
or the best choice. Sometimes doubt isn’t all bad, it makes us STOP and reflect
and ask advice.
So if you are facing a difficult decision, remember, “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and
you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” (Matt 7:7)
