Making Wise Decisions

Do you ever feel like you are in a situation facing a decision and have no idea what to do? Sometimes decisions can seem difficult to make, but God promises to give us wisdom. So just how do you get that wisdom? Do we have to do something in order to get it? He said to simply ask. How much wisdom did He promise to give us? He said he would give it to us liberally.

What does liberally mean? Merriam-Webster Dictionary describes it like this:
in a generous mannerliberally over the cake until it oozed over the edges>

He also promises to not be reproachable in doing so. He won't hold back from giving you His Wisdom.
James 1: 5, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, which giveth to all men liberally, and reproacheth no man, and it shall be given him." 1599 Geneva
God doesn't want His children to be without wisdom, not knowing how to make decisions that please Him, so He freely offers us His wisdom, if we'll just ask.
