Decisions, decisions

Get good advice before making decisions --

Proverbs 18:15 (NIV) The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of the wise seek it out.

God’s Word helps us make decisions --

Psalm 119:105 (NIV)  Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.

Ask God for wisdom before making decisions --

James 1:2-8 (NIV) 2  Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3  because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. 4  Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5  If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6  But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7  That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; 8  he is a double-minded man, unstable in all he does.
