about the power to trust God in making decisions

You can trust God with your life because He was willing to give up the life of His Son just for you. You can trust God to help you make decisions because when you make decisions and your heart is open to God's pouring out of His love, then the decisions you make will be grounded in His love. Your decisions may not turn out as you want. You may make what seems to be a poor decision. Your may make what seems to be a wrong decision and a mistake. However, for God and for what God wants from you in your life, your decision may be of little consequence as long as you trust God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your might.

The decisions you make may seem immensely important to you, but to God, these important decisions may mean very little. When you make a decision of some kind, it is more important you make the decision because you trust God to be with you forever. It is more important for you to trust God than it is for God to arrange a circumstance or deliver to you what you think you want or what you think you need.
