Trust in the Lord your God; trust Him with all your heart.
Lean not on your own strength but on God from the start.
Acknowledge Him; submit to God in all your ways.
He will direct your paths, guide you through all your days.
Do not be wise or smart in your own self or eyes.
Fear the Lord and depart from evil, shame, and lies.
It will be health to you, strength and might to your bones.
You will then understand God controls all unknowns.
(Based on Proverbs 3:5-8)
As believers in Christ, seeking God’s wisdom helps us as we face difficult decisions. No matter if our decisions are large or small, Scripture tells us to “trust in the Lord with all our heart and lean not on our own understanding.” When we rely on our own judgment, we can become confused and worry about missing an important detail or making the wrong choice. When we look to God for the answers, He will direct our paths. He will give us peace in our day-to-day lives.
What major decisions have you ben considering lately? Seek God’s wisdom in prayer, the Scriptures, and the godly counsel of other believers. Move forward with God’s wisdom.
