I read something recently stating that our pre-frontal cortex, the part of the brain that most affects reasoning and decision making, is not fully formed and developed until a person turns 30. This shocks me – a little. We can conceive and birth children, serve in the military, drink alcohol, rent a car and even operate on someone (if you have a medical degree) before that age. And yet, when I look at my own life, I know deep down that it’s true.
I’ve now passed the 15th anniversary of my 30th birthday and whether or not my decisions are wise, is frankly, a crap shoot.
I do my best. I pray. Seek God’s will. Ask for good counsel. But wisdom is still an elusive mistress. My friend and fellow writer Meg Weyerbacher graciously loaned me some space on her blog recently to explore this topic further. I would love it if you would join me now over in her neck of the woods to read more about how God used a bicycle to turn my attention to making wise decisions. And don’t forget to show Meg some comment love for being sweet enough to host me!

Thanks, Tammy. I appreciate you.
It must be true, I look back at my 20 year old self and wonder why I did some of the things I did – what was I thinking?! #GlobalBlogging
I think we can all say that, Heather! I’m just glad there was no social media when I was 20!
Heading over there now you have sparked my interest with the bike.
Ha! Great!
…this is 43rd anniversary of my 30th birthday it’s still a crap shoot. Just keep on rolling!
Thanks,Tom. I will!
Well, I suppose my pre-frontal cortex has been fully formed for quite some time now! LOL IDK that my reasoning & decision making is always that on spot or not… but I do my best, with God’s help of course. I have this book on my reading list. Thanks for linking up at InstaEncouragements!
With God’s help and mercy, right?
All we can do is try to do our best! I really enjoyed your guest post!
