• 0:57
  - Here is today's prayer.
• 1:06
  - Hello, and welcome to today's daily prayer.
• 1:10
  - I wanna
• 1:12
  - tackle the question today about what to do
• 1:16
  - when we feel restless
• 1:17
  - after making a decision.
• 1:21
  - And I wanna start off by
• 1:24
  - asking
• 1:24
  - you
• 1:25
  - if you've ever
• 1:27
  - been unable to settle your mind about a
• 1:29
  - decision after you've made it.
• 1:32
  - I mean, it's like you replay every option,
• 1:34
  - you've asked everyone for advice,
• 1:37
  - and yet there's still this gnawing
• 1:40
  - feeling of uneasiness
• 1:42
  - that just doesn't wanna go away.
• 1:46
  - Sometimes,
• 1:47
  - we mistake urgency for direction or pressure for
• 1:50
  - purpose.
• 1:53
  - But the important thing to remember that we
• 1:56
  - often forget
• 1:57
  - is that God doesn't lead his children through
• 2:00
  - confusion and chaos.
• 2:05
  - You know,
• 2:06
  - it's really challenging to remember this
• 2:11
  - because
• 2:12
  - we often wanna lean to our own understanding.
• 2:17
  - But God's word tells us that he guides
• 2:19
  - us through his word,
• 2:21
  - through prayer, and through the peace that comes
• 2:24
  - from walking closely with him.
• 2:27
  - Now that's not to say that we're not
• 2:29
  - gonna have any problems.
• 2:31
  - Life is gonna be full of them.
• 2:34
  - But the key here to remember is that
• 2:37
  - it's our confidence in God's presence and direction,
• 2:40
  - even when circumstances
• 2:42
  - are uncertain,
• 2:43
  - that will bypass
• 2:45
  - those feelings of
• 2:47
  - uneasiness.
• 2:50
  - That being said,
• 2:52
  - let's pray.
• 2:55
  - Heavenly father,
• 2:57
  - you know the decision
• 2:59
  - weighing heavenly on our hearts.
• 3:02
  - We've turned it over in our minds so
• 3:05
  - many times that we're absolutely
• 3:07
  - exhausted.
• 3:09
  - Teach us to stop
• 3:11
  - striving for control
• 3:13
  - and start seeking your presence.
• 3:16
  - Quiet every anxious thought and help us to
• 3:19
  - recognize
• 3:20
  - the calm confidence that comes from your direction.
• 3:26
  - If we're rushing ahead,
• 3:29
  - slow us
• 3:31
  - down. If we're
• 3:32
  - hesitant
• 3:33
  - out of fear,
• 3:35
  - strengthen our faith.
• 3:37
  - And let your peace rule in our hearts,
• 3:41
  - and guide our every step, in Jesus' name.
• 3:46
