Decisions, decisions
Do you know what God wants you to do? I don’t mean way out there in the future. I mean today.
Most Christians are good about going to God with the big decisions. We might pray for days, weeks, or even years about them. Yes, the big decisions are a big deal, but life is made up of so much more than them.
Over the course of your entire life you will probably make less than 10 really big decisions (college, jobs, marriage, houses, etc.). You make more small decisions than that every day. Some don’t matter in the grand scheme of things – what you will wear, what you will eat for breakfast, etc. But other decisions do. You need to decide how you will deal with that friendship that has become difficult, and that fight you had with your mom last night. You need to decide how long you are going to study for that test, if you are going to come to youth group, and whether to ask that girl out. God is interested in those things too.
Sometimes we don’t go to God with the everyday decisions because we picture God like a busy teacher who doesn’t want to be asked questions about things we should know how to do for ourselves. But that is not who God is. God is infinite – a big word that means he has no beginning and no end. God has all the time in the world, literally. He is not too busy for your seemingly small stuff. And he loves you so much, that he wants you to chat with him about those things. There may not be a lightning bolt or a burning bush that will tell you what to do, but after talking to God about it, you might get a different perspective that will be a great help.
There is a slogan some companies use, “No job too big, and no job too small.” God really means it. There is nothing you can go to him with that is too big, and nothing too small. Make God a regular part of your decision-making process.
