Whether we realize it or not, we make decisions all the time. To what extent does God want to exercise control over our lives? Should we be asking for guidance on every decision or not, and if not, how can we know if a decision falls into the "ask" category? Does God really care if I use strawberry jam today instead of grape jelly? I don't know if we will ever know the answer to these questions this side of heaven. God cares more about our decisions than some people think, but less than what others think; going to the extreme in either direction presents great difficulties. Paul in 1 Corinthians 10:31 sums this up quite nicely: So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. If we focus on God and his glory, all our choices will fall into place. If we choose wisely, great, if not, he will let us know and guide us back to the right direction. Let's just make sure that we are doing everything for HIS glory and his alone.How can we glorify God in the choices we make today?
