Praying through the small things

Proverbs 3:6 (ESV)

In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Some decisions you make in life really don’t have that much weight. What you eat for lunch, whether you wear your black or brown shoes, or whether to check Twitter or Instagram first, are examples of those types of things. However, some decisions you make in life can make a huge difference. Examples of these would be where you go to college, or who you marry. These decisions make a lot bigger impact on the course your life takes.

These big decisions can be really hard to make. You might feel uncertain or unsure if you’re making the right decision. However, if you follow what today’s Bible verse talks about, you can know that you’re making the right decision. The first step in making the right decision is to start seeking God in everything you do.

The first step in making good decisions is to start seeking God in everything you do.

When you get up in the morning, take a moment to thank God for your day. When you get ready for the day, talk to God and ask His help. When you eat lunch take a second to thank God for the food you have to eat. In the moments you have during the day, take time out to include God. Seek Him and His will in all you do. When you do this, you’ll not have such difficulty making the bigger decisions. Seeking God in the small things always pays off.

Dear Lord, help us to come to You in the small things so we are comfortable with coming to You and when the big things come we will automatically come to You. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
