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...
James 1:5-6a
Sometimes my mind gets so scattered, torn between what I think I should do and what others want me to do. I can't decide what's right so I come across as wishy-washy or worse. I've learned that if I just go to a quiet place and talk to God, things tend to gain perspective. I lay out my question, frequently giving my thoughts, and then I wait quietly.
He always answers. Sometimes His answers come in His silence. Sometimes His answers are right in my face. Sometimes His answers are really not what I wanted to hear. Then comes the challenge -- to do what He says rather than what I want.
Time has taught me that He really does know best. He really does love me. And He really will always, but always, choose the path that in the end is best for me.
