~ When Indecisive~

If you’re indecisive, making decisions can be difficult. When you finally make a decision, you may not be confident about it, or you might change your mind.

My niece inspired me to write this. Sometime ago I was watching her. My niece is a very jovial young woman, and she is very positive. But on this particular day her facial expression and body language told me something was wrong.

So, before I left her presence I ask, "Toi, are you okay?". Her reply was "I'm okay UB (Uncle Bernie). I'm just faced with making a decision. I did not press her to tell me what the decision was. Instead I said to her, "Toi, I sense something is wrong and whatever decision you need to make, do nothing until you see the hand God in your decision".

I went to the book of Numbers, chapter 14:44.  It states, "Nevertheless, in their presumption they went up toward the high hill country, though neither Moses nor the ark of the Lord's covenant moved from the camp." This makes sense if you have knowledge and understanding of the ark of the Lord's covenant.

The word presumption means: A conclusion made as to the existence or nonexistence of a fact that must be drawn from other evidence that is admitted and proven to be true. It also means:  Behavior or attitude that is boldly arrogant or offensive;  Behavior or attitude that is boldly arrogant or offensive; effrontery: :

In other word proceeding and making decisions independently of God, not based on fact or certainty is not wise.

It also means: PRESUMPTION 1 : presumptuous attitude or conduct : audacity 2 a : an attitude or belief dictated by probability:

The people of God in this story moved independently of God. They move based on presumptions. And,  you know whenever you make uncertain decisions things usually go in the wrong direction, as it did in this story.

Listen, when it comes to making a decision, and you don't know which way to go, then do nothing until you hear and understand the direction God is leading you. God states in His word " And you shall seek me and fine me, when you search for me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:11-13) ... His word also says, "Call unto me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." (Jeremiah 33:3). Trust can sometimes be difficult. But, circumstances  becomes more difficult when we make decisions independently of God!

Therefore, trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your heart.
