A Prayer for When You Can't Decide
By Kristine Brown "Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken." - Psalm 55:22 "Are you going to enroll your son in public school, or do you plan to homeschool?" the realtor's question hung in the air for several minutes. I hadn't even considered our options. Now as we searched for the perfect place to call home, panic threatened. How had we forgotten possibly the single most important detail of our relocation? Until then, our son happily attended part-time preschool at the local church. If we could've just stopped time and stayed in this place forever, I would've been fine with it. But life doesn't stop for job changes, growing kids, or moving to a new town. And with changes come tough decisions that must be made. I've never been a stellar decision-maker. In fact, letting my husband handle all the big decisions had become a habit. But learning to trust God begins when we learn to take our decisions - our cares - to Him. Give God control, and trust Him with the outcome. "Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken." Psalm 55:22 NIV 
There are times in our lives when we take our problems to God in prayer, then hear clear direction from Him on which path to take. Then, there are those other times. When we pray continually but feel like God doesn't hear us at all. We may think He's letting us figure it out on our own, but if we know God will never leave us or forsake us, why doesn't He answer? How do we make a decision without hearing from God? |
