Clarity
The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130
What are you perfectly clear on these days? I'm clear that God wants me focussing on the word clarity. It has popped up in various ways everyday for week! He has my attention.
Googling the definition a couple things caught my eye.
Clarity is "the state of having a full, detailed, and orderly mental grasp of something."
"We can have clarity of purpose, clarity of plan and clarity of responsibility."
Bingo! That was perfect wisdom to pass on to some high school athletes I like to encourage. I wrote, "Your purpose is to try to win. Your coach lays out a plan and then each team member carries out their responsibility to the best of their ability. So, I am praying for total clarity for each player as they discern their role in each play call."
On the flip side I read an article by Blake Glosson titled "What You Need More Than Clarity." He's not saying clarity is a bad thing, just that trusting God is a better thing.

In Aimee Joseph's article "Demystifying Decision Making" she writes, "We far too easily demand clarity from our Creator when, instead of clarity, he would rather cultivate faith in us."
Author, Ann Voskamp's observation is "Too often we want clarity, and God wants us to come closer."
Cuddle up and commune with Him today!
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. James 1:5
For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. 1 Corinthians 14:33
