Clarity of mind

Have you ever been confused about something and just did not know what the answer was or how to get unconfused? Well, that is where I am. But I think that we need to keep in mind that God is not the author of confusion... the devil is and therefore if we are confused, we need only to tell the devil to shut up and leave us alone.

Yes, this could be difficult, especially if we have been listening to the confusing lies for a while... but it is necessary. God does not want us confused about anything. He does not want us to sit here and wonder which direction we should go. He wants us to be of clear and sound mind so that we can best honor Him in all that we do. It is important to seek God in times of confusion so that we can shut the devil's lies out and ensure that we are able to clearly think and help others see that the devil is who wants them to stay confused.

When we have a big decision to make it is important that we do not let ourselves get confused. If we spend so much time debating back and forth then we will allow the devil to have a place in our lives and cause us so much confusion that we can drive ourselves crazy. Making decision are easy when we seek God and His guidance...allowing for Him to show us His plans for our lives.

"I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans not to harm you but to give you hope and future." Jeremiah 29:11
