the wonder of guidance

we have some decisions to make.
and we have limited information.
because i don’t know beyond this moment.
this i have learned along the way.

tomorrow could hold any number of joys or sorrows.
and my decision today may have something to do with that.
or it may not.
either way deadlines come and the decision must be made.

and so i pray.
and i seek the Lord’s councel.

and sometimes i just don’t know.
so i just decide anyway.

but my mind is learning how to have rest
no matter the outcome

because, and only because
of the only One who knows anything.

“i am senseless and ignorant; i am a brute beast before you.
yet
i am always with You;
You hold me by my right hand.
You guide me with Your counsel,
and afterward?…..
You will take me into glory.”

Whom have i in heaven but You?
earth has nothing compared to you
my flesh and my heart and my decisions may fail.
but
God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

it is good to be near God
i have made the Soverign Lord my refuge.
i will tell of all His deeds. psalm 73:22-28
