Fear

Man this week's devo is good. Today's devo, which talked about fear, is exactly what I was trying to talk about in my post yesterday and what I was trying to explain to Andy in the ski boat on Sunday.

"You hesitate to form your decision because you fear making a mistake."

This is me. I hesitate to make decisions because I fear making mistakes. The last two weeks have been an incredible practice in trusting the Lord with my decisions and "celebrating a vibrant dance of spiritual freedom with Christ" as I prepare for the summer. There is nothing I can not do if I trust and love the Lord with all my heart, mind, and strength.

God is good.

    I too tend to wait until the last possible moment to make a decision. It is hard because I so frequently put it in terms of "I don't trust myself to make the right decision" when I should be thinking "I trust God to control the outcome to his glory." Trusting that God is in control, regardless of how tightly I cling to the facade that *I* am in control is essential to living a life with Christ! Thanks for writing about this James!
