"Trust in The LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
King Solomon, the wisest man ever, said that we should not trust in our own limited understanding of things. We should trust in The Lord, give Him credit for who He is and for what He has done. If we do that, then He will direct our paths.
We need to rely on, and depend on God instead of on our instincts, our senses, our limited knowledge, or on ourselves. We are so prone to errors, mistakes, poor decisions, bad judgement, and to sin that we should never trust ourselves. We need to have an intimate and personal relationship with The Lord. We need to recognize that His hand is involved in all that is going on around us and with us. We need to have a total reliance upon Him, total confidence in His care, and total commitment to His Word. We need to let Him direct the course of our life. We need to understand and be secure in the fact that His way, really is the only right way. We need to begin, continue, and end every effort, purpose, and plan in our life with God.
