Dearest God,

Decisions, decisions, decisions. Seems like there are a lot of decisions to make about a lot of things. Small decisions and big.

In times like these I look at my choices, options. I wish it were simple. I choose this one. But it's not that simple. Oh yes, sometimes it is. But at other times I have to think, reflect and then make the best decision based on all the facts. Sometimes the best decision is the most difficult because with it brings change and pain.

However, I know these moments in time call for prayer, a prayer for help and guidance. Sometimes making a decision on my own without prayerful thought can be disastrous. I don't want to make that kind of mistake.

And so on this day as I am mulling over the questions before me, I pause and consider...you.

God of Heaven,
I come
to you
not because
you are
all powerful
but because
you are
all loving.
I sit
at your feet,
pondering.
I need
your help.
I want
your help
in the simple matters
and the complex.
Lead me,
Dear One,
lead me
to your will.

Love, Andrea
