Advice that Helped Me
Sometimes I find it very difficult to discern what is the right thing to do in making decisions. This is especially hard when the choice involves two different directions which seem equally worthy, --but, I suspect, they probably aren't. Therefore, which is the correct choice?
While making one of these decisions recently, I was reminded through one of the radio programs that I heard, that it's God's responsibility to guide us, and it's our responsibility to commit ourselves to doing what we know is what He would have us do.
That means to me that if I have the commitment to doing God's will, God will keep me from making mistakes. If I have no specific direction, I am free to do what my reasoned decision leads me to do. If it's wrong, God will show me that it is wrong and steer me in the correct direction.
What a relief that brings to me. My responsibility is to do what I know is pleasing to Him. My submission to His leadership opens the way for God to give me the guidance I need.
I'm sure there will be many changes of direction for me in the year to come. I want to always go in the direction that God steers me.
