When in doubt

I didn't know what else to do in the Bible study I was leading this past Sunday (common occurrence for me, not knowing what to do), so I asked the 8th grade girls to meditate for 3 minutes on the names given to Christ in Isaiah 9:6.

"...He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace."

I meditated along with them, but I never got past Wonderful Counselor.

Maybe this appeals to me because I'm terrible with making decisions, and I constantly seek out people for advice or affirmation for my decisions. My new years resolution a few years back was to be decisive--as if one could suddenly decide to be decisive :)

Close your eyes and imagine your life including a wonderful counselor.

When you've done that, revel in the fact that with Christ this is reality.
