Decisions

Today I am dedicating time to decision making, in particular there is one huge thing that I need to decide on, and it is not an easy one at all. Deciding one way means taking no action, the other way, immediate action. It's rare but I am 50/50 on this decision. I can both support it and shoot it down and depending on who I talk to, it's just about the same.

More importantly though, I am discovering something about myself that I do not love. Do I ask God first and then seek counsel, or do I flip that around. The answer is that I seek counsel first. I talk about it with other people, then I bring it before God. Of course it's more than obvious that this is the wrong way to go about it. First and foremost my life is to be directed by God and then lived in His power. Of course I must go to Him first. How silly it is to do otherwise. Not to say that God has not in His vast mercy, gone ahead and given me blessings and directions, even though I went about it wrongly. He is a good God, and He does good things. I do desire to follow Christ and obey Him fully.

So today my focus is bring my request before God first, then if needed I can seek Godly counsel.
