I have never forgotten what a wise Christian said to me many years ago: “When in doubt—don’t!”

And I long to take every one of them by the hand and lead them into the presence of the One who said, “Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” [Matthew 11:28 KJV].”
