Emotional Decisions

This week I’m reminded of the many personal tragedies out there. It seems that we bring so much trouble onto ourselves by our poor choices. Obviously, some bad choices bring worse consequences than others. But life brings enough tragedy on its own that we don’t need to add to it. We especially need to be careful about our emotional decisions: The number one influence of bad decisions. Making important decisions when we are sad, upset, under pressure, “in love,” or exuberant can have devastating and life-long consequences. It is far better to govern our lives in a manner which is true to Godly principles and wisdom.
