       We need to make decisions in our minds about certain things we are wondering about or what we are going to do about something. Living in indecision and double-mindedness will make us unsettled and even miserable over time. But making a decision is the key. Often I say use the guess and check method. If it’s something small that we are deciding, or something more insignificant, we need to make a decision and see if we are correct in our decision. Often we don’t know what is right and wrong in deciding something until we try different things. If something doesn’t work, we can reevaluate and try something else. Or, we can move on to something else. But often we need to guess at something, using wisdom, and then check to see if we were correct in our decision. Now being afraid causes us not to make decisions. Yes, there is a chance we will be wrong with what we decide, but there is the equal chance we will in fact be right. Another thing we can do to control the thoughts in our minds is when we are having a problem we don’t know how to deal with, or what to do, we can cast the care to God and then wait until he solves the problem for us, or shows us what to do.
