I sat across the table from him, staring straight into his eyes. A friend had just asked me if I really wanted to go that far from home to attend college.
Texas.
Did I want to go that far?
"I don't know."
That's all that I could say into the intent, penetrating gaze.
My options are wide and varied, thanks be to the Lord, but that doesn't help a lot in the decision making process.
A private, Christian college in Texas.
Or perhaps the one in Missouri.
Or the well-known state school right here in Indianapolis.
I struggle so much with making decisions. (If you don't believe me, let's go shoe shopping together sometime. Yeah, I drive my mom nuts! ;)
How will I know what the right decision is at the right time?
By God's grace, I will know by walking daily with Him. Oh, that I would have the commitment to block out all distractions and focus on His Face alone.
He is the Lion of Judah, bold and decisive when I am worried and indecisive.
I know there, in my Jesus' intent, penetrating gaze is where I will ultimately find the answer.
