A Prayer for Making Decisions

God,

It seems that life is always requiring decisions.

Sometimes everything in my life is stable and settled,

And then a new opportunity presents itself,

And I feel unsteady and unsure of which way to go.

At other times I become weary with stability

And decide I want a change in my life.

That's when I look for other possibilities

That may allow me to move in a different direction.

In either case, I can feel unsettled about making a decision,

Especially when there is still some

Haziness in my heart about the course I should take.

I do not, after all, want to make the wrong decision.

I pray that you will guide my thoughts

When I am searching through options for my future.

Help me be patient when the process

Is unfolding more slowly than I would want.

Help me trust the spirit of intuition

That you have given me as an aid for

Interpreting the signs that help me move forward.
