Let’s face it, we all make decisions that are not part of God’s plan for us. When Eve decided to take the forbidden fruit, she made it out of selfish ambition. In Genesis 3:6 it says that she saw that the fruit was “pleasing to the eye”, but she also found it to be “desirable for wisdom”, which was the ultimate deciding factor. There was no shortage of fruit that looked pleasing, but she wanted God’s knowledge and thus made her choice. We do the exact same thing. We make choices because we want more based on out limited scope, but if we truly trust in God who has the full picture, we make less missteps and live more fully in His will and be happier for it.
