“Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths Straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (NASB)
We have a most encouraging Promise from the Bible to focus on today. When we are troubled with circumstances that are difficult, or when we are needing to work some major or minor situations out and we do not know for sure how to do that? It is best for us to start with the promise we have today. The promise in today's verse is that God can and will make our paths straight and clear. We begin by trusting in Him with all our heart. We forsake our our trust in own understanding. Our understanding is not perfect and our knowledge is faulty so we look to God's understanding and knowledge which are perfect. We choose to Trust in Him with all our heart – we can't say that enough, with - ALL OUR HEART. We give up trying to figure it out. Instead we lean completely on God by confessing Him and acknowledging His presence and His care for us and that He has our best in mind. We follow where He leads us even if we do not fully understand in our reasoning, but by trusting and knowing He is our Lord we will find the right path. The path He leads us on is straight, so trust that promise today for whatever you might encounter.
