When Making Tough Decisions...

I appreciated this today. This was Blackaby's post. You can get the whole thing here: http://www.blackaby.org/ I hope it encourages you, as it did me. As believers, we have a personal relationship with the One who knows all, is all powerful, and is able to do far more than we can hope or imagine. We have a King who cares for us. We have a Lord that is seeking to work in us and through us for His glory. We have a Master who has a plan for His world and we are a part of it.

You, as a Christian, have access to God’s wisdom. God’s Spirit is within you to guide you (John 16:13). The Holy Spirit will open your eyes to the truth of the Scriptures so that you can see things from God’s perspective. Only God sees the future, so only He can accurately lead you to make correct decisions today.

As you allow God to direct your life, those around you will see true wisdom, wisdom not of the world but of God. Others will be confused about what to do in our complicated world, but God will guide you safely to the correct choices for you. Your family will be blessed because you make wise decisions. Your friends will have a wise_counselor to come to for help. Your obedient life will demonstrate the wisdom of allowing the Holy Spirit to be your Guide.
