When the rubber meets the road, for a woman striving for wholeness,
there comes a point when she is presented with the option to step forward or step away.
It's a risky step. The chances of making the wrong decision are 50%.
Stepping away means she would be free from delegations, duties, and desires of others.
Stepping away means she might bravely reject the imposed requests of her.
Stepping away, in the opposite direction of her pre-coursed season would mean breaking the tide.
This can be good. This can be bad.
Stepping forward means she would be accepting the delegations, duties, and desires of others.
Stepping forward means she might bravely take responsibility for what she's been given.
Stepping forward, in the imposed direction of her pre-coursed season would mean keeping peace, unity.
This can be good. This can be bad.
So how can she know which step to take? Is there a road map,
filled with the consequences of each decision, for sound judgement?
No. But there is wisdom. An abundance of wisdom from the One who has laid her course for her.
"For the Lord gives wisdom;
from his mouth come knowledge and understanding;
He stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
he is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
guarding the paths of justice
and watching over the way of his saints.
Then you will understand righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path;
for wisdom will come into your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
discretion will watch over you,
understanding will guard you."
Proverbs 2:6-11
