It’s no secret Lord… I have difficulty making decisions! AND following through with them once I do.
Thank You that it doesn’t have to stay this way. Thank You that You make change possible.
Just like making the decision to brew a second cup of coffee just now. Thank You Lord!
(4:44 a.m.)
While it may not seem like much to most, any decision I make is often deemed a big deal for me. I confess to You the tendency I have of being afraid of choosing incorrectly.
Even saying this to You lightens the burden I’m so prone to carrying. Thank You for bringing to mind the image of a donkey that may very well be standing behind door number 3.
Yes Father! These are the thoughts that keep me frozen in a state of decision paralysis. Thank You
(5:06 a.m.)
Yes, thank You Lord.
Thank You that as I sit and consider the various blessings You provide, I also get to sing out to You.
♪I don’t want to be afraid
Every time I face the waves
I don’t want to be afraid…
I don’t want to fear the storm
Just because I hear it roar
I don’t want to fear the storm♪
(Peace Be Still)

Yes Lord. I want very much to trust You with all that I am. And all that I have. Decision making hasn’t been my strong suit throughout the years. It doesn’t have to remain as such.
I can trust You. You’ve proven that in large and small ways all this time. Do all You must that I truly learn to ♪set my feet upon the sea ’til I’m dancing in the deep♪ (Matthew 14:22-33).
(5:51 a.m.)
You have such a magnificent way about You. I want desperately to lean into that magnificence and not be afraid.
Like with the raccoon just now. Slam the door. Scare it off. Do the dishes. Keep talking to You. And plan my next steps.
Father, thank You for being the God You are. The One we can talk with about everything.
Use me today. Exactly as You know is best. Teaching me to turn to You in all things. Trusting. And not being afraid.
I love, need, trust and want You. Thank You. Praise You. Amen.
