Every morning I awaken to choices.
What should I have for breakfast? What should I wear? What route should I take to work? Should I give that homeless guy money? What do I need to get at the store?
The list of our choices are endless.
But I've learned that the most important choice is: Am I willing to make time for God today?
Am I going to free up some precious moments to spend praying & reading His words each morning?
This decision seems to affect every aspect of my entire day.
When I set aside time for the Lord, I realize I've opened the door for HIM to help me with my choices throughout the day. I am no longer alone!
MAKE THE MOST IMPORTANT CHOICE...ASK YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER FOR HIS GUIDANCE. YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.
James 1:2-6
You know, this has actually been something I have been thinking about often! I tend to faulter here too. Almost as if God was speaking to me through you! Thank you for the reminder! :o) *hugs*
