I TRUST IN HIM!

Proverbs 3:5-6​ –  Devotional

Proverbs 3:5-6​

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

There is an old joke that I heard years ago. It seems that a chicken and a pig were discussing what they could do to show their appreciation to farmer Brown. The chicken suggested that they should honor him by providing a breakfast of ham and eggs. The pig snorted that for the chicken it would just be giving an offering — for him it would be a total commitment.

What a silly story… yet it becomes all too appropriate when we relate it to our spiritual walk with the Lord. There are many Christians who are satisfied with only giving a token offering. They do not want to be associated with those they consider to be wild eyed religious fanatics.

As I study the lives of the Old Testament and New Testament saints, I find that they were far sighted and solid in faith. They looked beyond the frothy things of this world and saw the reality of eternity with the Lord.

In today’s Scripture, we have a road map for our life. When we place our complete trust in the Lord we have the confident assurance that He will direct our paths. I choose to have the Lord of the universe direct my life. I trust in Him!

Blessings dear heart! Walk with God today and be a blessing!

Proverbs 3:5-6

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do rely on your own understanding. In everything you do give Him the credit and He will make your ways straight.”

I have a pretty good sense of direction, but I must confess there have been times when I was totally lost. It is not a pleasant feeling to realize you had lost your way and could not find your way back to familiar ground.

I once was hunting with a friend for chucker partridges in the desert lands of Idaho. Since we had not seen any birds, we decided to each go in a different direction. It was not long before I realized that the canyon where I now found myself was not the one I had originally been in. I WAS LOST!

After a few hours I met a group of hunters who were very familiar with the area and realized that I had followed the wrong canyon. I was soon reunited with my hunting partner.

It is possible for us to neglect constant contact with the Lord and discover that the territory in which we are traveling is not where we should be. It is when we feel lost that we need to get into God’s Word. It is in His Word we will find the directions we need. DIRECTIONS PLEASE LORD!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

Asking for directions from a stranger can be a frightening experience. In rural areas the people who live in the area are prone to give simple directions such as buildings, trees, brooks, or other such tangible objects.

Then there are the modern day programs that speak through the car radio and inform you what street or highway to take, how far to travel, when you have arrived at your final destination.

For believers in the Lord Jesus as our personal Savior, we are assured of the right directions as long as we keep our spiritual eyes on Him instead of being led astray by the appeals of the world to abandon directions from God’s Word.

If you are not spending quality time in the study of God’s Word, I will sternly warn you that there are many dead ends ahead for you. We all will face bumps in the road, but when we travel with Jesus, He will keep us focused on the right direction!

Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and be a blessing!
