psalm 32:8

If you know me, you know that I am on of the most indecisive people in your life. Going out to eat with me in nearly impossible unless I'm not the one choosing the restaurant. Uniforms in middle school were my best friend.. no need to spend an hour matching my old navy Bermuda shorts with the perfect graphic tee. Getting my nails done? Expect an extra 15 minutes waiting for me to pick a nail color.

Ive reached a point in my life where I seem to be making important decisions all the time. Growing up my mom would always tell me to go with my gut- "you'll know when you see it, it will just feel right"; my dad on the other hand always told me to follow my head- "Go with the smart and safe decision". Well lucky for me I take after both of my parents equally- hence the complete lack of decision making abilities.

Psalm 32:8 says "I will guide you along the right path; I will counsel you and watch over you"

me: * sigh of relief * 'okay so God's got this, He will just throw some signs my way telling me what to do, no sweat'

God: 'lol, not that simple'

For so long I was caught up in the fact that God wasn't putting these crazy obvious signs in my life, guiding me on difficult decisions. I used to think that when I had a question all I needed to do was bow my head at night and say a prayer asking for guidance and the next day would be a scene out of Bruce Almighty when the big truck of street signs popped up in front of Bruce. Silly me thought it would be as simple as a God presenting one clear opportunity in front of me- instead he would place three. I was waiting to hear a loud voice in my head telling me what to do, I forgot that I was listening to the still small voice that is God.

Recently I have been showered in blessings and have had amazing opportunities bestowed upon me, the problem was I couldn't say yes to everything. For weeks and weeks I filled my prayers asking God what to do. These decisions were so hard to make and my biggest fear was that I was going to make the wrong decision. Then it hit me.

Matthew 6: 33 [ seek first his Kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. ]

If God has placed something in front of me, there can be no wrong decision. I thought that God was testing me by placing so many things on my plate at once but He was truly just blessing me with opportunities to praise Him, worship Him, and spread the Gospel. In what ever I chose to do, I chose to do in His name- God will take care of the rest.

me: *sigh of relief* "okay, cool!"

God: "Yeah , Im pretty cool like that"
