How do you make decisions? Sometimes the decision-making process is as important as the decision itself. I'm not referring to the daily decisions we make such as which route to take to work, what to have for breakfast, or even if we should have regular or decaf. Now you know whether you should be drinking decaf or no coffee at all for that matter, but even the wrong decision is a decison.
Then there are decisions that you should make with extra care. You should take time, not because of indecision, but because the result of your decision will be with you for the rest of your life. When it is time to make an important decision and you find yourself in the process, there are several things that will help you make that correct decision.
You may view the decision from many vantage points such as where you are in life, where you have been, and where you would like to be. You may also seek assistance through books, articles, and even websites devoted to the decision making process. With all of these resources at your disposal, how important do you think it is to make the right decision? Oh, there is one other thing on the list. Prayer. I believe prayer is the most important of these decision-making resources.
The thing with prayer though, is that you must listen for the answer. Scary thought huh? Scary because the answer may not be what you want to hear. So if you pray, which I suggest you do, be prepared to comply. Even in the 'no', God has a reason that you may or may not ever know. Either way, make the right decision because you have to live with it for the rest of your life.
