Quotes about being the master of my fate and the captain of my destiny terrify me. And to be honest, if my life were a ship, it\u2019ll be a ship still docked at the harbor because the captain simply can\u2019t decide on a day to set sail.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the truth is, despite what those quotes say, you don\u2019t <em>have to <\/em>be the captain of your life. You don\u2019t have to have your entire life figured out.<\/p>\n<p>There is a better candidate for that position. He isn\u2019t just a great captain, He is also a loving Father. <a href=\"https:\/\/decibel.one\/this-is-how-much-i-love-you-god\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">And just like a father who would go before his child to make sure everything is in place and safe for him\/her to simply enjoy, your Heavenly Father does the same for you too, and so much more<\/a>\u2014He wants to bring you along the BEST pathway for your life! (see Ps. 32:8 NLT)<\/p>\n<p>If today you are fearful of what is ahead and the slew of decisions you have to make, He says this to you, \u201cDo not be afraid or discouraged, for I will personally go ahead of you. I will be with you; I will neither fail you nor abandon you.\u201d (see Deut. 31:8 NLT) As children of God, that\u2019s our confidence today. Our confidence is in who the Father is.<\/p>\n<p>And what does the Word say about Him? It says that \u201c\u2026your Father knows exactly what you need even before you ask Him\u201d (Matt. 6:8 NLT). It says that He\u2019ll \u201cattend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you\u201d (Luke 12:28 MSG). It says that He knows the plans He has for you, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future (see Jer. 29:11 NIV).<\/p>\n<p>But perhaps you\u2019ve <em>already<\/em> made some bad decisions in life and you\u2019re wondering, \u201cHave I stepped out of God\u2019s plans?\u201d Perhaps you even feel like the sum of all your bad decisions has blown you off-course and landed you in the very place you didn\u2019t want to end up in. I know, I\u2019ve been there countless times in my own journey. Yet I\u2019ve come to realize that having God on your side in this life means that even when you\u2019ve made some not-so-good decisions along the way, <a href=\"https:\/\/decibel.one\/is-god-still-good-when-bad-things-happen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">it is never the end because He is able to work every detail in your life for your good, even the seemingly bad ones<\/a> (see Rom 8:28).<\/p>\n<p>When you know who goes before and with you, you can breathe easy in the assurance that no matter what steps you choose to take, the Father is never caught off-guard and <a href=\"https:\/\/decibel.one\/you-need-not-worry-about-tomorrow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">He is still in control.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Friend, there is more than enough grace for every decision you\u2019ve to make, <em>and <\/em>this same grace is greater than even your greatest mess-ups. Fear not! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"share-box fusion-sharing-box boxed-icons\" style=\"background-color:#ffffff;\" data-title=\"Afraid to make decisions about your life?
