Seeking Obedience: Drawing Closer to God Before Major Decisions

Originally Written 19 November 2023

According to Myers Briggs, I’m an INFJ. As an INFJ I tend to always live in the future and will get overwhelmed easily if I’m unclear what my future will look like.

Dilemma

Currently, I’m making decisions if I should stay in the area I’m in now or move overseas for missions. Can I buy a home in the States as a home base and travel frequently overseas or should I just pack up and move? I like the idea of having a home base in the States and have a lot of fears moving overseas. I have larger fears of not being obedient to the Lord.

Truth

I haven’t been meditating on God’s word or spending significant, precious times in His presence. Today, I decided I’m not going to make any decisions until I’ve drawn closer to Him.

Prayer

Lord, let me draw closer to You before making more large decisions. Help me to listen and be obedient to You, O Lord. Help me to grow in my love of You and putting my trust in You, my King. Thank You, my Love!
