Trust

So. Recently I made a big decision. At least, I thought I had made the decision. I analyzed the problem, did a LOT of research in the topic, and consulted with trusted and very respected people. I prayed and sought God's will in it. All done. Finished, right?

But then. . .
I talk to some other people in my life. Others that I also trust and respect immensely. And their advice/opinions clashed with my decision. Suddenly I am second-guessing myself. Did I make the right decision? Since it is still in the "could-be-changed" stage, should I change it?I don't know what to do. It wasn't an easy decision to make in the first place.

I think all the hesitation comes from the fact that it has to do with one of my kids. It's a major step, and the momma in me is eager and yet reluctant to make this decision.

So I cried a lot today. yeah. It's been that kind of day. I went back to the Bible in search of His wisdom. I needed to trust in Him. I found "As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried; he is a buckler to all them that put their trust in Him." 2 Samuel 22:31 And in Psalm 37:5, I am reminded to "Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass."

Yes, my original decision was right. By putting my trust in God, I know that I can trust myself to make good decisions.

It's still hard. And I am sorry to be so vague on this. I will be able to share more next week.

but for now, just trusting...

  2. I so wish I had been keeping up on your blog. I'm not sure if you noticed, but I've fallen out of the blogging loop. I keep up on Mon's & that is it. Not mine, not your's, not anyone else's. I think I got burned out. However, I am so sorry that I haven't been checking in here. Sending my prayers your way. *HUGS*
