Series: What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do

Has anyone ever had a parent or adult tell you when you were young to go somewhere and sit down and “be still?”

Many times we are fidgety like a small child and find it very hard to sit still. As we grow in our walk with the Lord, just as in physical growth, we must learn to be still.

There are going to be times in our lives when it seems as though there is a lot of “noise” going on around us. It is very important during those times to not let the noise cause us to be anxious and jump ahead and make a bad decision.

God tells us through the psalmist to “be still and know that He is God.” It is during these times of being still that tremendous growth in us can take place.

In this message we learn what to do during those waiting times.

Have you ever planned on going swimming only to discover the float (or air mattress) you were going to use has a hole in it and will not stay inflated? What revealed the hole? The pressure that the air created in the float or air mattress.

Very often, when we don’t know what to do in our lives it creates great anxiety or pressure. The pressure does not cause the “hole”; it only reveals the weakness that was there all along.

What you do during a time of pressure is really determined before you get to that time of pressure.

A huge key in life is to not wait until pressure comes to get ready for the pressure. You must get ready ahead of time.

In this message, we learn how to deal with pressure than sometimes comes from not knowing what to do.

When you don’t know what to do, very often worry and anxiety try and fill that void. If we want God’s wisdom and direction for our lives and even in that situation we may be facing and don’t know what to do, we must deal with worry. In this message, we will show you how to overcome worry so that you can receive God’s wisdom and direction so you can make good decisions in life.

It is a simple fact: there are going to be times in life that we do not know what to do. 

There are usually two times in life that this will happen: when we are at a crossroads or when we are in a crisis. Because of this we need to take inventory of our lives on a regular basis; not in a self-condemning way but to simply assess the quality of the decisions we are making. Here’s why: As adults, our lives today become the sum total of the decisions that we made yesterday.

If we look at our lives and we are not where we should be or want to be, we must learn to make better life decisions.

This series is all about bringing us to a place where we make better life decisions.
