I have some difficult “big picture” decisions that I have to make regarding Goat Milk Stuff. Nothing earth shattering (things like retail room hours and whether or not to do Farmer’s markets next year with our cheese), but they are decisions that will affect the family. They’re difficult decisions because I’m feeling very conflicted about them.
My head knows what is the proper business decision to make.
But my heart doesn’t feel that the proper business decision is necessarily what is best for the family.
And therein lies the conflict.
I keep trying to come up with solutions that satisfy both my head and my heart and yet nothing presents itself.
And so I wait.
I’ve learned over the years that if I don’t have peace about a decision, it’s not time to make a decision. Some might argue that not making a decision is a decision in and of itself.
Perhaps.
And yet, decisions are often rushed and made before a decision is actually required.
And so I wait. And pray. And discuss. And think.
Eventually an alternative choice will present itself or circumstances will change and a decision will be made.
But for now… I wait.
Are you currently struggling with any decisions?
Sometimes it is good to remember that God does not speak to us in our timeframe. Keep thinking and prayer and His perfect will will be revealed to you. 🙂 Being conflicted is not good, so keep waiting until you have peace about your plans.
Yep – that’s always my plan. PJ
