A
PRAYER FOR MAKING DECISIONS
Gracious God, it seems that life is always requiring decisions. Sometimes
everything in my life is stable and settled, and then a new opportunity
presents itself, and I feel unsteady and unsure of which way to go. At
other times I become weary with stability and decide I want a change in
my life. That’s when I look for other possibilities that may allow
me to move in a different direction. In either case, I can feel unsettled
about making a decision, especially when there is still some haziness
in my heart about the course I should take. I do not, after all, want
to make the wrong decision. I pray that you will guide my thoughts when
I am searching through options for my future. Help me be patient when
the process is unfolding more slowly than I would want. Help me trust
the spirit of intuition that you have given me as an aid for interpreting
the signs that help me move forward. Give me a spirit of risk and the
faith to trust, so that I will try something new, speak something new.
Remind me that even if I make a faulty decision, your boundless grace
will bring goodness to the decision I make. I ask this for the sake of
Your love. Amen.
