Trusting God

Day 1 · Trusting God

Lean Not on Your Own Understanding

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.”Proverbs 3:5-6

Reflection

Trust is not the absence of thinking; it is refusing to make your own limited understanding the final word. We are invited to bring God our whole heart and then to lean — to put real weight on Him rather than on our ability to figure it all out.

A prayer

Lord, I have been leaning hard on my own understanding, and it is not enough to hold me. I put my weight on You instead. Direct my paths, even the ones I cannot yet see. Amen.

Carry this with you

Where are you trying to understand your way forward instead of trusting your way forward?
