Trust in the Lord

This is one of my favorite proverbs. When you’re at the end of your rope, stressed by your day, searching for answers, filled with anxiety, angry or scared – notice that the verse below begins with action and ends with a promise.

“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.”
—𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐛𝐬 𝟑:𝟓–𝟔

This is putting God’s Word into action.
Repeat after me. I must:

𝐅𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 — Trust in the Lord with all my heart.

𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 — Admit, right now, that I’m incapable of making good decisions, and I don’t understand what’s happening. But I’m not going to react; I’m going to rest.

𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝 — With everything that I am, I will cry out to God. I will pray to Him and praise His name.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞 — He will direct my path.

Have a blessed day!
