Bible verse of the week
Decision Making
I have been thinking about decisions and the quote from last week's sermon, "What fills you.... controls you" which also affects your decision making.
Making good decisions I think we all can agree is important. There are so many bad ones being made. I look around and the choices people make are so poor. I believe that between stress, self indulgence, greed, and not thinking things through cause for poor decision making which usually affect others. (i.e. looking at porn, texting and driving, speeding, over spending or shopping)What you can do
Habits: Those are the decisions we make that we really do not want to change. I would suggest:
- Write them down on a list
- Pray for each one you want to break.
- Ask others around you, that you trust to help you break them. (That last part is humbling but liberating.)
Today's bible verse is...
Matthew 7:13-14 (NIV)
The Narrow and Wide Gates “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Dwight, I commend you, that is a very cool website and commentary! My wife is starting a new job today and my VA rating decision is getting closer. We awoke at 2 this morning and discussed what we are going to do. If you don't have a plan and agreement, that wide path is right in front of you, you can't see the narrow gate. Just my thoughts
