Chosen

I can be VERY indecisive sometimes (Yes, Hannah, you can stop nodding your head and laughing at that understatement!). I'd like to think that it's called being laid back, but . . . . ! Many times I know what I want, but other times, seriously, I drive myself crazy. How hard can it be to choose a cereal, or plan what I want to eat for the week, or make a decision whether or not to go to the PRESWIC annual meeting (yes, this is all true). It's the little things that get me. Big life decisions are easy because I can pray and seek God's will. However, nowhere in the Bible does it tell me which lotion scent to choose or whether I should run errands today or tomorrow. These small things really are not life or death issues, and there are no wrong or right answers, but sometimes I agonize over what I want to do. Does anybody else struggle with this? Is there any help out there for indecisive people? No, really? All helpful ideas will be accepted.

In an attempt to answer to my own question I've decided that there is an answer. It's called I need a permanent decision maker in my life. So, I'm currently taken applications for someone who I can call on to decide which cereal I should buy, what I should fix for dinner for the week, and which cookies I should pack in my lunch. :o) Serious applicants only!

Seriously though, how glad I am that God has chosen me! I know that with all my sin and muck, I would not have chosen HIM. What a beautiful thing that the major choices of this world have been made for me and that I can trust Jesus with my future. Both the big and little things!

You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit an that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. John 15:16
