Proverbs 3: 5-6

Sue’s Views
Proverbs 3:5-6 has become my go to scripture of late. It says:
  
“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.”
There is so much treasure in those two verses. First we are to trust God wholeheartedly. That alone is a challenge! We are so used to being in control. And then to stop relying on what we know can sound irresponsible! But we need to realise that our understanding is limited and fallible whereas God knows everything and is totally reliable. He sees all the pitfalls and hidden agendas. Lastly we are to acknowledge Him in every situation ….. whether on the mountain top of exhilaration or in the depths of despair. Remember ….. it’s not about what we feel or see. It’s about Who He is! He is able to lead you through to where He wants you to be. ‘Making your paths straight’ suggests to me that He will help us practically as well as spiritually.
