"Watch the path of your feet And all your ways will be established" (NASB).
“Carefully consider the path for your feet, and all your ways will be established” (HCSB).
Two versions of the same verse that were exactly what I needed to ponder this morning. When making decisions, I need to remember to "carefully consider" before making the decision. I need to bring it God and let it sit for awhile. The world won't end if I don't make my decision quickly and it will be a better decision for having waited it out.
It's so hard to know sometimes if what we feel like doing is what God would have us do, if we are really on the right path. Slowing down and meditating is hard for me. I want the right answer and I want it now, to be brutally honest. But I am slowly gaining maturity in this area of my life. I am learning to not make big decisions based on my emotion alone. I am learning to seek counsel from others, especially when it comes to financial decisions. It is hard to wait, but I am starting to see the benefits of slowing down and carefully considering my options.
