2 Kings 7:8
And when these lepers came to the uttermost part of the camp, they went into one tent, and did eat and drink, and carried thence silver, and gold, and raiment, and went and hid it; and came again, and entered into another tent, and carried thence also, and went and hid it.
Prior to this verse,these lepers were at a crossroad.They were in between a besieged city and the enemies camp.They were in a situation. They needed to make a decision. Each analysed the circumstance. They were getting hungry and needed food.If they decided to stay where they were at that time they would die of hunger,thirst and probably the weather.If they were to go to the besieged city where nothing goes in and nothing comes out they would also wind up dead.But then they had one last option and it was to go to the enemies camp. They decided to go to the enemies camp.Two things were likely to happen.
1.They might be spared and given food to eat and drink and probably live longer or
2.The enemies killed them on the spot.
The lepers DECIDED to go forward to the enemies camp.They did not wait at the centre of indecision. Indecision is the younger brother to procrastination. Don't wait any longer. Weigh your options.Count the costs and make the decision the go for your dreams.Make the decision to learn more.Make the decision to be a better person.Make the decision to go out,look for and exploit opportunities. You will glad you did
Life is a test,a trust and a temporary assignment.
