Tough Choices



I have found that as an adult tough choices have to be made.  It is no longer okay to do what is easiest or bury your head in the sand like an ostrich.  As an adult, the tough decisions have to be faced.  It is also true that most of the time hoping things will change produces no results.  Sometimes these tough choices have to be made to provide the best environment for your family.  Sometimes they have to be made to offer the best opportunity for healing and growth.  Sometimes these choices have to be made for no other reason than God leading you to make them.

I am beginning to so how unhealthy it is to stew in negative emotions and remained unsatisfied.  It does nobody any good when you are constantly lamenting your situation and bringing others down to your level instead of building them up.  In choosing to avoid tough decisions you are essentially telling God that the burden He has put on your heart is wrong.  Many times making tough decisions and sticking to them requires complete trust and faith in God.

If you are facing any tough decisions in you life today, I pray that you would have the courage to make them.  Spend time in prayer seeking the Lord's guidance and act when you feel Him move you to a decision.  I truly understand how hard these decisions can be.  I don't like to make them and I often doubt my final stand.  I have found that fully leaning on God is the only way to find peace in tough decisions. I ask that you pray for me in the tough decisions I face and I would love to pray for you also.  Feel free to email me anytime at realchristianwalk@gmail.com.

Blessings,

Greg
