Good Morning,
Not knowing what to do can be unsettling, but it’s a common human experience. Everyone faces times in life when uncertainty clouds our judgment and decision-making feels overwhelming. When you feel stuck or confused, the good news is that there are practical strategies you can use to regain clarity and move forward with confidence. Remember the words of David in Psalm 25:4-5: Show me Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths. Lead me in thy truth and teach me.
Christians must remind themselves that it's normal to feel lost at times and that they can handle the unknown one step at a time. Sometimes, stepping away from the problem for a moment offers a new perspective. But the simple act of continued prayer is the very thing that sustains you until clarity returns. Even when it seems like nothing is changing, each prayer is a reminder that you're not alone and that strength and guidance can be found even in silence. "Faith is moving forward even when you’re scared."
If it seems like God isn’t speaking to you about what you’re seeking, that doesn’t mean He’s silent - it could mean you’re creating too much noise. Not knowing what to do is a part of life and can test both faith and resolve. But not knowing what to do doesn’t have to be paralyzing. Christians who are unsure of what to do cultivate a spirit of attentiveness to hear God's voice through prayer and Scripture.
It's natural to feel lost, anxious, or even discouraged when you're unsure about the following steps to take. Whatever you place at the center of your life is the thing that will control you. It's so easy to put worry, fears, or the future at the center of our lives when, in reality, it should be God. However, Christianity provides timeless principles and guidance for navigating seasons of confusion and indecision. Don’t use your time worrying and trying to figure life out on your own. Instead, focus on what you already know to be true and build on what God has already spoken over your life.
