Making
a decision usually means taking one of two roads. One is doing the

thinking up an elaborate justification for what you are doing, you are
not doing the right thing.
- Wayne Sales

doing wrong. Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take
up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.

Let no feeling of discouragement prey upon you, and in the end you are sure to succeed.

Love
is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or
rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or
resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the
truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
endures all things.

Finally,
be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the
whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of
the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against
the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this
present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly
places. Therefore take up the whole armor
of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having
done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of
truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as
shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of
peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you
can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the
helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of
God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and
supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making
supplication for all the saints,
