Decisions Quotes

“Envy can wake us up to one of two truths: We want something and better do something about it while we still can, or we want something and just cannot have it. […] If your envy is strong and you decide you want to do something, you probably can.”

“Without seeking truth it is unlikely you will find success. The truth very well might set you free, but it’s not always fun. People say they want the truth, but more accurately, they want the truth that is easy to hear. They don’t want the painful truths that don’t support our decisions or force us to accept we were wrong about something. But without truth, you will never be able to course-correct. Putting the company first and your bruised feelings second is an important step in saving your start-up from failure.”

“Sometimes it looks like you're going nowhere or that you're headed in the wrong direction. I'm learning that the decision itself is rarely the point. The point is becoming more fully ourselves in the presence of God, connecting with Him and with each other, and living our lives as though we believe He is good and beautiful. The point is being honest about where you are and what you need and then looking around in your own community for people to walk with you and with whom you can walk. I spent years wishing people would support me only to later realize I was waiting around for something to come to me when I was perfectly capable of going out and getting it. I'm convinced God is less interested in where we end up then He is in who we are becoming. Whether we're employed or unemployed, encouraged or discouraged, filled with vision or fumbling in the fog. More than anything, our Father just wants to be with us. The most common way He shows His "withness" to us is in the actual, physical presence of other people.”

“... the decisions you make are your decisions. And without checking in with yourself and what you want or need, you’ll find that you start doing your work and living your life for everyone but yourself. That’s not productive, it’s not sustainable, and it’s certainly not fulfilling.”

“I am well pleased with Thy will, whatever it is, or should be in all respects, and if Thou bidst me decide for myself in any affair, I would choose to refer all to Thee, for Thou art infinitely wise and cannot do amiss, as I am in danger of doing. I rejoice to think that all things are at Thy disposal, and it delights me to leave them there. Then prayer turns wholly into praise, and all I can do is to adore and bless Thee.”

“En voi muuttaa takaisin. Tiesin sen jo lähtiessäni. En siksi että olisin niemonomaan jättänyt jotain taakseni, vaan enemmänkin siksi että tein valinnan. Päätin lähteä tänne ja päätin jäädä vaikka erosimme, ja nämä kaksi valintaa estävät minua muuttamasta mieltäni. Takaisin palaaminen olisi mielensä muuttamista. Tarvitaisin syyn lähtämiseen, mutta en keksi sellaista, ja siksi jään tänne.”
