I Don't know What to Do

By Paula Williamson, guest writer

Often, we find ourselves in situations where we do not know what to do. I have found myself in them more often than I care to admit, including relationships, financial stress, the future, which car or house to buy, career direction, the death of a loved one, new situations, and many more. We only need to open our eyes in the morning to find ourselves in situations each day that require wisdom and direction.

It Is Written

MATTHEW 6:33 Seek the Kingdom of God [ above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.

Letting Go

When we find ourselves beyond our knowledge and physical and emotional limits, we are pushed to seek help beyond ourselves. Today we tend to Google or ask CHATGPT, but there is someone with far greater knowledge who knows our future. Many times in my life, I have called upon God in such situations and have been astounded by the outcome. It’s always far greater than I can take credit for or than I can give to anyone else. I am learning to let go and trust Him for the outcome.

Prayer

Lord, why would we go to anyone else but You? You are far wiser. You care more for us than anyone else, know the motives of our hearts even when we don’t, and promise to grant wisdom when we ask, a promise no one else can make. I take all my uncertainties and lay them before You, trusting You with the outcome.

Takeaway

When I put God first in my life and follow Him, He will supply my needs.
