Trusting in God

Trusting in God

Scripture:

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

“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.”

Reflection:

This morning, let this verse be a gentle reminder to release the tight grip we often keep on our plans, our timing, and our need to understand every detail. God doesn’t ask us to have all the answers—He simply asks us to trust Him with all our heart.

Trust is an act of surrender. It’s saying, “God, I don’t see how this is going to work out, but I believe You do. I may not understand the path, but I know the One who guides it.”

When we submit our ways—our decisions, relationships, dreams, and worries—to Him, He promises not just guidance, but clarity. He will straighten our paths, meaning He will lead us in the direction that aligns with our highest good, even if the journey there is unexpected.

Today, whisper this prayer:

“God, I release my need to control and understand everything. I trust You. Lead me, and I will follow.”

Let peace take the place of anxiety. Let faith replace fear. You’re not walking alone—you’re being guided by divine hands.

Journaling Prompt:

Where in my life am I trying to control the outcome instead of trusting God?

What would it feel like to fully release this to Him today?

Take a few minutes to write from the heart. Be honest. Let your words be a sacred offering of surrender.
