What is the Lord asking you to trust Him with today, this week, this year?
"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
Isn't it funny how we all want the promise at the end of verse 6 and yet it's so easy to disregard the premise f o r the promise in verse 5. Letting go of control isn't easy, especially as women. Asking the Holy Spirit each day to keep us dependent upon Him and not looking to our own education, experiences, titles, positions, etc. isn't always easy either. But in the letting go and surrendering all things, including the difficult, over to God, trusting in Him and leaning on His understanding, He promises that He will make our paths straight. That's not to say the road won't be difficult at times, perhaps lonely, maybe even painful, but we can be assured that He is the One leading us and He will remain our strong-tower and refuge. He will make our paths straight and His peace will be available each step of the way.
What is Jesus inviting you to trust Him with, dear sister? Give it to Him (trust Him), let it go (don't lean on your own ways), He will not fail you, He promises to make your paths straight.
