Making Better Decisions

Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth. Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee. Provers 4: 5 & 6

Decisions -- you've already made millions of them, and you've still got millions more to make. Most of these choices are of the smaller variety -- like what to do at a given moment, or what to say, or what to wear, or how to direct your thoughts. But a few of our decisions will be BIG, like choosing to be a Christian, or deciding whether or not to stay in school, or choosing a profession.
Whatever choices you face -- whether they're big, little, or somewhere in between -- you can be sure that the quality of those choices will make a huge difference in your life.
How can you make better decisions? A great place to start is by talking things over with God before you spring into action, not after. While you're at it, you can check things out with your parents -- or with other concerned adults, like grandparents or teachers. And, you can learn to listen carefully to your conscience.
During the the next year, as you think about the lessons we'll be putting up, please take these idea seriously. When you do, you'll make decisions that will please God and improve your life.
