Life is the sum of all your choices.” – Albert Camus

We make decisions every day.  Everything we say and do is the result of a decision, whether we make it consciously or not.  Whether our choices are big or small, there is no easy formula for making the right decision.  The best we can do is to approach it from as many perspectives as possible and then choose a course of action that seems reasonable and balanced.

Because every decision we make has consequences, the process can be very stressful.  Have you ever been afraid to make the wrong decision?   The key to relieving the stress caused by making decisions is found in scripture.  The answer is simple: we need to let God guide us.  Now I know that some of you are thinking that you have tried this before and it didn’t work.  Knowing God’s will isn’t easy, but I can assure you that God wants to communicate with us and guide our decisions.  The book of James tells us to ASK IN FAITH.  God promises to give us wisdom if we just ask for it.

The real key is to ask ourselves if we really trust in God.  If we do, then we must turn over control of our lives to Him and keep moving in the direction that he leads.  God sees paths that we don’t know exist.  He will make a way.  God bless you and guide your decisions, large and small.
