Faith
A lot of times I'm like, God, what should I do?
Because what I'm really asking him is, can you tell me how it's going to play out so that I can make a decision based on what I already see? But that's not what faith is.
The Bible says we walk by faith and not by sight. So if I'm walking, I mean, I don't see what's next.
I'm just trusting that he's going to get my next step to the ground.
Decisions, decisions. Decisions are only hard when you feel like there's something that you're risking, something that's at stake if you make this decision. What the consequences are that you don't know. This is why we have to trust God. Because what is outside of our capacity, what we cannot do, when we move on faith, we're believing that God got the ability to sustain us in the middle of whatever happens.
Does that mean not to move on wisdom?
The word gives us wisdom on what decisions we probably should make and we probably shouldn't.
But let me say this,
You're not going to know how it's going to end up every time. And that is terrifying, especially when you struggle with being disappointed over and over and over and there's trauma and PTSD and all these other things in the world. But in moments like that, when you've got a decision that you've been on the fence on, you have to remind yourself that even when everything around you has the ability and the possibility to change, God does not.
God, who can you be for me in the middle of this drastic move and this change and leaving this relationship and growing closer to you and being who I am outside of what everybody It takes faith because you're not going to go by what you see.
You're moving like you've already overcome the worst of it.
