"The Right Thing"

There are days when I feel like I am being tested. I don’t mean at school but in life. I made an extremely hard decision today and feel good about it. With all the legal stuff that has been going on it has been my own ethical and moral values and convictions that seem to deliberately be challenged. I am in a unique position that I never anticipated or desired. I have certain responsibilities that I intend to fulfill completely. Above all else I have a conscience. There are many people I am expected to answer to at this point Judges, family, the list goes on and on. The most important however is to answer to myself and the Lord above. The Lord has gotten me this far not the judges or my family. No the Lord has given me guidance when I have prayed about these things. He has also placed people in my life who I believe are his own helping hand.




Doing the “right thing” is usually not the popular rout however it is what God expects of us. Even if others might turn their head or take advantage, I believe with all my heart that doing the right thing will always pay off in the end. I have heard people say that doing the right thing blew up in their face. I cannot remember the right thing ever back firing on me. That’s not to say I have not had explosions because I have but they were not due to doing what was right. In most cases I think the explosion is at least minimized compared to what it might have been if I had followed what was easier. I want to teach my daughters to make decisions in life that they can be proud of the only way I can do that is to set that example myself.



I made several phone calls today and I pray that everything turns out the way it should be. I am sure that there will be a few people who are not happy with me but I have decided that I am ok with that. I will be able to look my daughters in the eye and know that if they understood everything that was going on they would be proud of me. Everything happens for a reason. All I have to do is, whatever I feel is right and this will all turn out the way God has planned.
