“Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take” (Proverbs 3:5-6 NLT).
Often, life makes little sense. But even when we don’t understand what’s happening, we need to hang on to the truth that God does understand. He has a plan.
You’ll find four verbs in Proverbs 3:5-6. The first three are actions God wants us to take.
1. Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
2. Don’t depend on your own understanding.
3. Seek God’s will in all you do.
When you do those three actions, God promises to take the fourth action
— Direct your path. That leads to peace and joy.
Father, help me to follow your plan that leads to peace and joy.
Shalom!
