On Air Now Right Song at the Right Time Midnight - 6:00am
Now Playing Rise Up Cain

Decisions, Decisions

I saw an advertisement for something I'd never heard of before...an 'interactive' movie. The main character was at a crossroads in her love life and with the touch of my remote control I could help her choose which guy she should pick and watch her decision play out. When it got to the end of the movie if I didn't like the ending, I could choose to send her back to the moment of decision and pick the other love interest and watch the movie with an entirely different ending. Fascinating and frightening all at the same time! Full disclosure, due to the curiosity in me, I had to watch all of the choices to see how each one played out.

We can be quick to give advice to others about life choices and most likely we receive advice from others about upcoming life choices. But, the One whose leading we need to seek most is God's. Unlike us, God knows the end from the beginning. He's not running the scenarios through to see which one ends up best like we would in that interactive movie. God knows exactly what we need. He knows what we will choose. And He knows how to work it all out for our good and His glory.

It's not always easy. And truthfully, it doesn't all feel good when we're in the messy middle of things. There is, however, one thing that can keep us hopeful through it all. Through all of our best and worst choices, our indecisions and our rash decisions...God never leaves us. Isaiah 41:10 (MSG) says, "I'm with you. There's no need to fear for I'm your God. I'll give you strength. I'll help you. I'll hold you steady, keep a firm grip on you."

Regardless of the decision you are walking out today. No matter if you chose your path or someone else's decision has you in a place you never asked to go. You are not walking it alone. God will always stay right there with you.
