Proverbs 16:25 (AMP) - There is a way that seems right to a man and appears straight before him, but at the end of it is the way of death.

Decisions, decisions! There seems to be so many...what will I do?! Should I go left? Should I go right?! I just don't know. I've changed my mind at least 10 times in the last week and I still don't know if my current decision is right. What will I do?!

This is almost my life story here. There are some things I'd like to do, but I'm unsure if God wants me to do them. I change my mind, then reconsider. I go another path only to return the way I came. I find myself going around and around with no relief in sight. I become tired, frustrated, and angry, but who's fault is this?! Did God initiate this? Did God tell me to consider another path?

James 1:5-8 (WEB) - But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. For let that man not think that he will receive anything from the Lord. He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

Over the last few weeks I've been reading the Old Testament and I found how God will not only speak His specific purpose and will, but He speaks in His appointed time. I've also found how our time is not always His time. Sometimes if we feel God is not moving fast enough, we'll try to take matters into our own hands and start making decisions.

Did God say to move?! Did God initiate this?

I've had a number of big decisions on my heart over the past few years. (If you've been reading my posts, you'll know what.) The Lord enlightened me this past weekend that He will tell me what I need to do in the appointed time. There's no need for me to keep thinking about what I should do or should not do - I need to stop.

I've allowed myself to get worked up about the decisions on the horizon, when God hasn't said anything. If I don't understand something, all I have to do is ask for wisdom and leave it alone. God will provide an answer...I have to trust Him. As you see the rest of James' statement, I will be unstable in ALL my ways and not think that I will receive anything from the Lord. Hmmm! Is that what I want?! Is that what you want?!

Ask in faith and do not doubt!
