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.”
I am trusting right now, I don’t know what this message will be about or whom the Lord is sending it to but I imagine whoever you are, you will recognize that it’s you …
Trust in the Lord with all your heart! All your heart! Not your mind, not your current circumstances, not your windfall or downfall but your heart!
Our minds, moods, and emotions can change in a moment but the heart that’s another story! We love with our hearts. Love is the strongest cord, it binds us to both the good and the bad. Measure the strength that love has by remembering a relationship that ended without your desire for it to do so!
The mental anguish, the heartache, the tears, the songs, the stomach ache that doesn’t feel like it’s ever going to end. The brain knowledge knows that this is probably for the best but try convincing that to your heart! Doesn’t work, doesn’t happen, the heart goes on mourning and time becomes our worst enemy and best friend all at the same time.
So…trust in the Lord with all your heart!
The prayer’s prayed! The hope that follows! The wait!!! The answer!!!
Prayer’s prayed, easy peasy…the hope that follows a joyful high…the wait, here’s when or where it can get difficult…waiting, trusting, keeping that hope alive…no matter how long it takes…believing beyond a shadow of a doubt…That’s Faith…That’s trusting with all your heart!
Lean not on your own understanding…
I usually have a game plan, an idea, a solution and often try and help God out with my suggestions! God doesn’t need my help or yours and I have found the more ideas, solutions, and game plans I have the longer my answered prayers seem to take.
Submit to him and he will make your paths straight…
Get out of the way, once again…trust in the Lord and lean not on your understanding (ideas, ways). Let go and Let God, after all, you prayed for his help, let him!
Straight paths, peaceful walks, blue skies, and fresh air! Whatever it is that has you heartbroken, your world jumbled, your walk crooked, or your skies cloudy…
Commit and Submit!
Have a blessed day…God loves you! Thank you for joining me. 🥰
