Have you ever felt stuck? Like the game we played in childhood, where you can't move. Just going through the motions, just same old and more same old. You want to move forward but unsure how, you desire change but are scared of the pain that comes with it. So you remain stuck immobile. What keeps us stuck?
It could be a seasonal thing, are like winter where there seems no growth but the growth is happening on the inside. It could be fear, fear of stepping out in faith, of doing something different, of the unknown and of the rejection or the failure that may come. So we choose to remain stuck. Sometimes there just seem to many choices, and in the desire to choose the best we remain stuck in the valley of indecision.
I believe that God takes us from glory to glory. As 2 Corinthians 3:18 says, We "are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another" That God has greater things in store for us than living constantly in that place of indecision. I love the advice from my sweet granny, "Make a decision and stick to it". Yes pray about the decision, yes acknowledge God (see Proverbs 3:5-6), then He will straighten our paths. But not making a decision shows that fear is ruling over faith.
Let us let go of the idea of the perfect choice, the fear that hold us back. Let us allow the Holy Spirit to touch us and free us so we are no longer stuck in the mud.
May God bless you with freedom to make choices, may He smile upon the choices you make with Him and may He be with you in the decisions you make.
