When you need counsel but not a committee

Let the peace of Christ rule in your heart.

Colossians 3:15

When you need counsel but not a committee. This is where faith gets practical. Pay attention to the interpretation forming underneath the circumstance. Bring the conclusion into the light before you build a response on top of it. You are allowed to move without possessing every answer. Surrender can carry you farther than endless attempts to guarantee the outcome. A different pattern often begins with one unglamorous act of obedience. Start with the choice that is actually in your hands today.

Imagine this problem belonged to someone you care about; what would you want them to remember? Where are you asking yourself to live by a harsher standard?

Lord, keep the old script from choosing on my behalf today. Steady me in the moment between trigger and response, and lead me there. Amen.
