LEAVING YOUR CHOICE TO GOD



In most cultures, the elder or the highest ranking individual is allowed to make a choice first. A lot of us find it very difficult to let others choose first especially when it involves something of great importance.

Abraham’s servant and Lot’s (his nephew) servant were having disagreement. To avoid conflict, Abraham suggested they part company and gave Lot to choose any direction to take while he will take the other (Gen. 13:8-9). Lot choose a more fertile land and left Abraham with the less desirable land.

Abraham did not insist on rights  as he was much older than Lot but he trusted the LORD to take control of his future. Lot’s choice ended in an undesirable manner for his family.

Today we find ourselves making several choices which could either shape our lives for the worse or better. In other to be certain that we will always come out good, lets trust our Father to guide us in His way; He has promised to care for us.

Those who put their trust in the LORD shall never be disappointed!
