Thank you to all who participated in the sharing of your Life/Favorite Verse(s) yesterday. I was well fed with a feast of wonderful scripture.

The favorite of many participants was Proverbs 3:5-6.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6 NASB1995

A blogger friend shared these verses on Tuesday but I never had the chance to read it until yesterday.
I inadvertently listened to a sermon, which I very seldom do online, and yes it was also on Proverbs 3:5-6.
I decided that Proverbs 3:5-6 might just be what God wanted me to share today.

Trusting is not an easy thing to do. It makes us vulnerable to the person we are putting our trust in. Can they be trusted?

I believe we even struggle at times trusting God. It is easier to say we trust than to actually put our trust in Him.

Could it be that we struggle to trust because we want something that God may want better for us? That’s where we need to not lean on our own understanding, trusting that God wants the best for us.

And God’s Word is a great place to grow our trust and learn to walk the straight path following in the footsteps of Jesus.

One of my dear friends who chose Proverbs also chose this verse which I believe fits right in to trusting the Lord.

For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
Hebrews 4:12 NASB1995

🌹Are you trusting God? Is the Word where you go when you doubt, when you’re seeking to understand?

The Lord is waiting for you to seek Him so that your trust in Him will grow.

Continually Seeking Him,
