Life is made up of little decisions that seem to be insignificant but can have tremendous consequences. here is a great example: I know this isn’t the way that you should do things, but this is how it happened to me: When I was a senior in high school in 1967, my dad encouraged me to go to college. I had a pastor who attended Tennessee Temple College, and I had a cousin who attended Bob Jones University. Both good schools. I got applications from both schools, but I couldn’t decide which one to choose. The application fee was $25 for Bob Jones and the application fee was $10 for Tennessee Temple, so I chose Tennessee Temple. At Temple I met my wife, who was from Michigan. I had never been to Michigan, and otherwise, would never have met her. We had four children, five grandchildren, and one great-grandchild (so far). And all of this was because of a little decision that I made one evening in 1967! If I had decided to attend the other college, the trajectory of my whole life would have been different. Solomon said in Proverbs 3:5&6, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” I am so glad that God directed my path to Tennessee Temple, where I joined the Concert choir where I met my future wife, Kathy. Hey, God has continued to direct my steps in a wonderful way! Let God direct your steps. He will!
