Given a choice between right and wrong, what you would you choose?
Tough question right? "It depends" may have popped in to your head. Who defines right and wrong? The Law? Your conscience? Other people? God? We make choices all day long, many of them unconsciously. All have consequences...
Many of us think we are choosing the right thing, only to find out later it was wrong. Very rarely does is work the other way around...
Prayer works well. Praying before making a decision requires you to slow down. It brings God into the mix. The best part is He never steers you wrong if you give Him the chance. It requires you to actually listen.
Whether the decision is big or small, God wants to be a part of the process! Let Him in and give Him a chance. Prayer isn't just for when you wake up and go to bed, or something you recite at church. It's a chance to communicate with the One who created you and has your best interests at heart. Try it.
Lord, I am at a crossroad and I need your guidance. Help me to make the decision that is best today. Keep me focused on the big picture, Your picture, and do what is right. I trust your decision above my own. You know the ripple effect my decision creates, please help me make the right one. In Jesus name, AMEN
Luke 6:12-13
