Beloved of All
Through life’s trials and challenges it seems hard to focus especially when deadlines are looming. I want to make wise decisions in all matters in Jesus name. Sometimes a door shuts but another hasn’t opened yet and it feels so daunting. Should we wait on God’s timing or move forward in prayer and action to meet obligations. I need divine solutions to earthly problems. Sometimes I’m not sure what the Lord’s Will is in certain situations. I just want clarity.
 
In times of trials and challenges, it is comforting to know that God is with us and He cares for us. When we feel overwhelmed by deadlines and decisions, we can find peace in knowing that God's wisdom is available to us.

When the Bible tells us to "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).

The first thing is to pray always in Jesus' name. Jesus promised 'Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Ask in my name and I will do it.' John 14:13-14 WEB

It is also important to know that as Christians we need to always act according to God's timing. Sometimes we might be tempted to move forward in our own strength, but God's Word reminds us to "Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh." (Psalm 27:14 WEB). Action without prayer can be rash, but waiting on God's timing means we are aligning with His will.

Also, the Bible reminds us that if we lack wisdom, we should ask God. He will provide wisdom to those who ask. Let's remember the words of James, 'If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him' James 1:5 WEB

When we are unsure of God's will, we can trust that He will guide us. As we wait on Him, He will renew our strength and give us clarity. As it says in Isaiah 40:31 'But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.'

Heavenly Father, in Jesus name we come to You, thanking You for Your unfailing love and guidance. We ask for Your wisdom and clarity in every decision we make. Help us to trust in Your timing and to act according to Your will. Renew our strength and give us the courage to face every challenge with confidence in You.

Let's stay in prayer, seeking God's face continually. He is faithful and will never leave us nor forsake us. He is our rock and our salvation.
 
We're right there with you, feeling the weight of those deadlines and the uncertainty of what's next. It's easy to feel overwhelmed, but remember, we're not alone. Jesus promised, "I am with you always, to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20). Let's lean into that promise together.

Sometimes, it's tough to know if we should wait on God or take action. The key is to keep our hearts open to His voice. Let's pray, "God, give us wisdom. Show us the steps You want us to take, and help us to trust Your timing. We want to honor You in our decisions, so please give us clarity."

And hey, it's okay if we don't have all the answers right now. God sees the bigger picture. Let's rest in that, knowing that He's working everything out for our good (Romans 8:28). Let's keep praying, keep seeking, and keep trusting. We're in this together, and with Jesus, we can face anything.
 
From a book I have been reading:
"Use of reason as a source of light.
God expects us to use ordinary means to achieve ordinary ends. If I break a leg, He expects me to get it set by a doctor. I may pray for divine healing but not instead of refusing ordinary medical help. We should surely pray for divine enlightenment but not instead of refusing study and consultation. Where human reason is sufficient to solve problems, God is not likely to intervene in a supernatural manner." Authenticity, by Fr. Thomas Dubay. Pg 119.

Now this is me speaking, I recommend to pray over your situation and to think carefully about any possible solutions you could make. Then take the solution you think is best after consultation with others whom you can rely. In regards to God's Will, you may find it in the teachings of Scripture and in the 10 commandments. Other than that, Divine providence will take care of circumstances beyond your immediate obligations. Take care and God Bless you.
 
Thank you dear God for all you do for all of us. Thank you for loving and protecting us all. All glory and honor belongs to you Father God! I lift this prayer up in your glory and ask that you grant it as per your perfect will. In Jesus name we pray. Amen
