Trust and Move: The Answer to Indecision

*        *        *

What do you do when you don’t know what to do?

When there seem to be too many options?

When there’s no clarity?

When there’s no clear path?

Trust God and move.

I mean, what else am I gonna do?

Nothing is not an option.

People are under the delusion that they are staying still in life when they do nothing.

That’s a lie.

The tide of life is always moving. If you’re not working to go forward, the default is to drift backward, degrade, and devolve into “entropic chaos.”

Nothing? That’s unacceptable.

Not even my trust in the waiting is stagnant.

“Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” (Jam 2:18)

Because I trust God, I know I can move.

I can move with confidence.

I can move without fear.

And I can move knowing that my movement will be guided.

But the bottom line is I need to trust God and do something. Anything.

Actually…not anything because my default “do” is to look for videos to tell me what to do.

I won’t count that.

I mean PRODUCE something. Build something, design something, create something, write something.

Perform useful actions that are forward moving whatever it may be.

I need to escape the inactivity. The paralysis. The think-my-way-out-of-it mentality.

And MOVE!

I keep fearing to move because of my perfectionism, my need for certainty.

But I don’t know if any of this will work until I try!

I need to do something, anything that has the potential to move the needle.

And trusting God first is what gives me the peace to even move.

It’s what will pull me out of the downward depressive spiral that is the product of overthinking.

It’s what will calm the anxious questions of my heart and allow me to take that step.

He promised to establish them if I trust Him after all.

So, I don’t know what to do.

So that means I know what to do.

Let’s do it.
