Every day I am plugged into making numerous tiny decisions, sometimes with the potential to be life changing, others just simply a decision. Attending church today made me think about the "little" decisions I make daily...do I eat fruit for breakfast or cereal? Should I drive the extra block to get a penny cheaper gas? Should I wear my pink shirt or my green shirt today? I calculate them all...am I making "good" decisions though or "God" decisions...I hope for the latter.
Christians sometimes fail to realize (myself included) is that, when you are serving Christ and staying in-touch with Him through prayer, then almost ANY decision you will make will be a good one. Consider what He tells us in Philippians...
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philip 4.6-7
Continue (or start) asking for His help with everything, take everything to Him in prayer, and ask Him for anything & everything that you desire. The worst He will probably say is "no." And even in those moments aren't we practicing dependence and complete obedience to
His will and not our own.
And for this...I am truly thankful!
