I’ll walk with grace my feet and faith my eyes…

Filed under: — alisa @ 12:28 am

I don’t know if I have had been so loaded with things on my mind until this point in my life.No wonder I’m braking out, its the stinken stress I’m under. If I could just pick one or the other the stress would go away, right? I don’t think so, I just think a whole new stress would come upon me. Its not ones fault but my own (well I could blame Carla to make myself feel better but that wouldnt help anything now would it? ;) ). I literally feel like two people are pulling my arms in opposite directions. Both which look appealing to me, so which do I help the tug-o-war with? I effect people if I stay or if I go, which makes me feel loved. But then I don’t want to hurt anyone and ether choice I make, I’m going to somehow. I hate that. Its like I cant win or lose, isn’t there supposed to be some outcome? Its easy for you to say “The Lord will guide you”. I believe He will but that’s the difference between you saying that and me believing it. You got easy and I don’t. I still sit here, weighing the pros and cons, wanting, yet again a big billboard of a sign telling me what to do. God has never worked that way in my life, so why do I always expect Him to?

    Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” Isaiah 30:21

    I don’t know if that verse really works here, contextually… but it always comes to my mind in these sorts of situations. (And no, it doesn’t help you make a decision… but I take comfort in the idea, anyway.)

    it sounds like your choice is between the greater of the goods, not the lesser of the evils. while that doesn’t necessarily make your decision any easier to make, at least it may make it easier to bear once it’s made. good luck with it! (if all else fails, pray fervently then flip a coin… that’s pretty much what i did for college)
