Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. – Proverbs 3:5-6 NIV
It’s very difficult not to lean on my own understanding. If I’m honest with myself, most days I feel pretty good about what I understand. Why would I want to trust in someone that I’ve never actually seen with my own two eyes anyway? Doesn’t that seem odd to you?
But the promise in Scripture is that if I trust in God, if I acknowledge Him as the Manager of my life and genuinely lean into Him for every decision I make today, then He will make my paths straight and help me with all the difficult decisions I need to make.
I’ve personally experienced this in my own life, so I know it’s true! It may seem completely “out there” and difficult to figure out, but you can trust God with every area of your life.
