Being indecisive creates confusion and it delays action.
“15I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! 16So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.” – Revelation 3:15-16 (ESV)
Make a decision already! Without one, we are simply marking time and not moving forward. We are not winning or losing. God wants us moving, obeying, and loving. We are not making any progress (either good or bad) if we are simply indecisive.
Making a decision is moving forward. Either in the right direction or wrong. If we are moving, obeying, and loving, God will give us additional direction. When we are sitting waiting, God will simply sit and wait also.
Last year I chose to live the word “stand” in an effort to get moving as I was idle for too long. This year I choose to live the word “example” in an effort to calm some of the, dare I say, aggressive standing I did. Either way, I am at least moving and am able to get some direction from God. Am I getting it right, an emphatic NO! But, I am moving and God is providing me with my next moves.
Discipline to make those decisions in our lives is important in getting us moving. Discipline after the decisions will come from God as he corrects our path. But without discipline, we are standing idle and so is God, waiting for us to make a move so that he can help.
Where are you in your decision making? Are you standing idle waiting for direction? Or, are you disciplined enough to make a decision and get help from our Lord and Savior?
