From: New Life Devotionals - Steve Arterburn
James 1:5 "If you need wisdom—if you want to know what God wants you to do—ask him, and He will gladly tell you. He will not resent your asking."
Life presents each of us with countless questions, conundrums, doubts, and problems. Thankfully, the riddles of everyday living are not too difficult to solve if we look for answers in the right places. When we have questions, we should consult God’s Word, we should consult our own consciences, and we should consult a few close friends and family members.
Perhaps Søren Kierkegaard was stating the obvious when he observed, “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.” Still, Kierkegaard’s words are far easier to understand than they are to live by.
Taking a forward-looking (and stress-conquering) approach to life means learning the art of solving difficult problems sensibly and consistently . . . and sooner rather than later.
Successful people make right decisions early and manage those decisions daily. John Maxwell
