Decision Making

I had to call in the plumber yesterday as my tap wouldn't turn off.  I decided to ask him for a quote for a new bathroom suite which badly needs replacing.  Mine can't be descibed as tired, it's exhausted!  He's been my regular plumber for years so I know I can trust him and he'll give me a good price.

I felt very pleased with myself for doing that.  I find making decisions hard when I'm on my own; not just financially but also whether it is the right decision for us.  I miss having another adult to bounce ideas off.  The children really want to go to France this summer but I can't stretch the money to a new bathroom and big holiday.  So this is an important decision.  The money I spend will be the last of Paul's pension.  I like to think of it going into the house, something solid that could only be done because of Paul, but on the other hand it would be great to take the boys abroad and give them new experiences.

Last Sunday in Church someone gave me a word saying that I had to make an important decision and to ask God and He would be in it and show me the right way.  At the time I just thanked him not sure of what he was talking about.  In fact I thought it was probably about moving forward into the New Year.  This man just kept saying God had told him there was an important decision for me to make, but to include Him in the decision making.  I think thats my answer; to pray and God will show me what to do.
