What To Do When You Don’t Know What To Do

It is never easy when you have to make a decision in a difficult situation. There are times when you know the right answer but the fallout from that decision causes you to question if you should do the right thing.  

Joseph was tempted by Potifer’s wife to dishonor God and his boss. Joseph made the right decision but being honorable landed him in prison. There is a simple framework we can use to make sure we are making the right decision, even when doing the right thing hurts our reputation, opportunities, or relationships. The framework is to answer the following questions: What does God’s word say about this? Have I prayed about this? When do those disciplining me say about this decision? How can I remain faithful to Jesus after I make this decision?
