I once saw an advertisement about a pub and grill called "Wits End." It was advertised as "The Place to Be!" I'm sure that all of us have found ourselves at our wits end and I don't think any of us would say that it is the place to be. We would all rather be any place than at our wits end. I never heard anyone say, "I wish I could be at my wits end."
Unfortunately, we all have been at the place where we were at our wits end. We often feel like the fellow who said that the light at the end of the tunnel turned out to be the headlight of an approaching train. Another said that they were so depressed that their hands shook so badly they could brush their teeth without any voluntary movement and that they had cried so much their contacts had rusted to their eyeballs. It may be that things are so bad that you feel like Oscar Levant who said that he was thrown out of a mental hospital for depressing the other patients.
What do you do when you don't know what to do? In the story before us we find Jehoshaphat at a place in his life where he didn't know what to do. Let's look at the story and find out what to do when we don't know what to do.
