Trust in the LORD


“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart
and lean not unto thy own understanding.
 In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct thy paths.”
 Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

               This passage sends a strong message. In our 21st Century world, we need strong positive messages that evoke us to rely on God in spite of what human nature tells us.

               When we trust someone, we do not try to second-guess his or her actions or their plans. We
should approach God’s deeds and His plans in the same way.

               Our own understanding is very limited. Humanly we can only put faith in what we see. When God comes into our lives, we learn that He is always trustworthy. In addition, we know God is reliable.
