The first step is to put myself in neutral gear—not forward or backward, but completely calm in my heart. Then I wait upon the Lord, saying, “Lord, I’m here. I will listen to your voice. If you say ‘yes,’ I will go; if you say ‘no,’ I’m not going. I don’t wish to make decisions for my own benefit, but to decide according to Your desire. Whether it becomes good for me, or bad for me, I’m ready to accept your guidance.”
