Some have a fear of commitment. Our of that fear they will beat it to death in their minds, get emotionally ill over trying to figure out what to do. They will either do nothing at all out of fear, or do it because of the wrong reasons.

In ones life time, they may choose to make a commitment to do something. Some do it in eagerness to be a part of something. Some times it is is because they are pushed by others. Others are persuaded to make a commitment at a weak moment, or by someone that talks them into it. I am sure there are many other reasons than what I mentioned.

Those who do it in eagerness to be a part of something, later may be sorry. They will fulfill their part, not out of the eagerness they felt at first, but out of duty. The heart will not be in it. They will do it because they give their word. They may even come to resent having to do what they promised to do. For those who are pushed, or were talked into a commitment, it may be that it was not good for them, and they too will not do it from the heart, but out of resentment.

In making a life time decision, we need to be clear on all the reasons we are doing something. Prayerfully seeking our Fathers will, not man will, or our will in it. As long as there is a doubt, or one can not with full assurance of knowing why, and all involved, and with their whole heart, not their head, they should not make any commitment to the cause. If they do, then it may be later it is their determination to keep the promise or commitment, rather than with their heart they do it. It will make them miserable, as well as those around them.

Our Father wants us to fear to disobey Him, but He does not want us to commit to Him, with fear of giving our lives to Him. It should be not because we are caught up in the moment of emotion, or some one talks us into it, or we are pushed or feel like we just have to, but really do not want to. If we do anyway, then it will not be from our hearts to fulfill the commitment, but duty. It is our love for Him that we do something.
