Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding
Proverbs 3:5
When Life Doesn’t Make Sense
Have you ever faced a situation where nothing seemed to add up?
Maybe you’re there right now – trying to figure out why things are happening the way they are.
This verse speaks directly to those moments.
The Challenge of Trust
Trusting God completely isn’t easy. It’s like being asked to walk across a bridge while wearing a blindfold, knowing someone else is guiding you.
Your natural instinct is to take off the blindfold and guide yourself.
Beyond Your Understanding
Why does the verse warn against leaning on our own understanding?
Because our perspective is limited.
It’s like trying to understand a beautiful painting by looking at just one small corner of it. God sees the whole picture.
Making It Real
Think about an area in your life where you’re struggling to trust God.
Maybe it’s about your future, a relationship, or a difficult decision.
What would it look like to fully trust God with that situation?
Your Trust Exercise
Start small. Choose one concern you’re carrying today and consciously hand it over to God.
When you feel yourself trying to figure everything out, pause and remind yourself to trust His bigger perspective.
Trust Him, rest in His wisdom, and be assured that He has YOUR best interests at heart!
