Has God called you to believe and/or to serve Him in a way that requires you to sacrifice something you own, or of yourself? Are you at a place in your walk of faith that requires you to make a choice between believing and having faith in Him, and Jesus, or returning to where you once were in faithlessness? Well, every believer comes through such forks in the road, and it separates the true believers who go to the right, from the nonbelievers who turn back to the left. Sometimes it occurs at the first moment of our belief when we must decide who Jesus is, or maybe at other more sacrificial times when we must answer or not answer a challenging call from God.

When decisions are to be made how do we make them? Do we use our own intellect, and reason within ourselves until at last we think we have the right answer? This is the way of a natural, or worldly, man, and as such the world places a great deal of value in those who are self-sufficient like this. We honor self-made men and women, those who are self-assured, self-reliant, and contain all the other “selfs” that we can think of, but is this really what God desires us to do?
