Once you have placed your life in the hands pf the Lord Jesus and decided to follow Him, no matter what He asks,
you might have moments of unsurety.
When there is a difficult decision, how do you choose?
Sometimes both ways seem okay.
In my decision, both have positive benefits for the Kingdom of God.
Sometimes when you ask for wisdom, you weigh the good and the bad and you still can’t figure it out.
I am there, at the fork in the road.
I heard, “It is time.” twice. Meaning time to leave my present job.
There is another job I can take with fewer responsibilities and much less stress and also less money.
But still, I want to make sure it is God. I want to make sure it is really Him.
How can I know?
My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me: John 10:27
I don’t feel like fasting, but I think that might be the best idea at this point.
I have asked for wisdom and prayed and read His word.
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not;
and it shall be given him. James 1:5
Since I’ve asked for wisdom, maybe I have already been given wisdom?
I help a lot of people at my present job.
I am oppressed and stressed there.
I have done my best to work under difficult authority respectfully.
Sometimes, we walk forward and see if the door opens up for us.
I’m almost positive this door is open, so I must make the choice.
And the key of the house of David will I lay upon His shoulder;
so He shall open, and none shall shut; and He shall shut, and none shall open. Isaiah 22:22
I could cast lots. That’s what they used to do. Flip a coin. Or create a fleece like Gideon.
The lot is cast into the lap; but the whole disposing thereof is of the Lord. Proverbs 16:33
I’m going to see how it goes and maybe walk and see if the doors truly do open.
I’m going to walk slowly and trust that God is giving me the wisdom I asked for
and that He will make His voice clear to me as this is a complex decision.
I’ll let you know how it goes.
