Catch a tiger by his toe
If he hollers let him go

Once we were down to the last two choices, we added another chant.
My mother told me to pick this one right over here!
Seem like I'm still doing "eeny meeny" for all of the important decisions in my life. In short: I MAKE BAD CHOICES. A lot.
I make bad choices in my love life, my finances, in my time management and in my spiritual walk. I keep eeny meeny'ing and choosing the wrong thing every single time.
I choose a vacation over new brakes.
I choose to hold on to past hurt rather than walk in healing.
I choose relationships that aren't good for me instead of living joyfully alone.
I choose vindictiveness over compassion.
I choose to binge watch a show on my phone rather than reading my bible.
Why?
Because I'm not doing Proverbs 3:5-6. That's why.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
I'm so far into leaning on my own understanding that I'm planking.
And in order for me to get my choices right, I have to put away my childish eeny meeny miny moe mindset and really lean on God. Trust in Him, knowing that He will guide and direct me into the destiny He desires for me.
Didn't He say
“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; Before you were born I sanctified you..."
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope."
It's time for me to believe Him. Time for me learn to WAIT on the Lord. And let Him direct me. I'll end up better off in the end.
Now I feel like playing a good game of Mother May I.
NOT IT!
In love,
M
