"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..."
Trusting in your own knowledge can cause you to go down the wrong path and make poor decisions. When we lean on our own understanding, it is like we are traversing a path blindly that leads only in the wrong direction. In contrast, when we decide to trust His knowledge and lean on His purpose for our life, He takes care of us and leads us down a safe path. We all have times when our plans don't work out. We get delayed, interrupted and inconvenienced. It's easy to get frustrated and fight against everything that doesn't go our way. But not every interruption is bad. Every closed door doesn't mean you're doing something wrong. Every delay doesn't mean you're not where you're supposed to be. God sees the big picture for your life. Trust Him today because He is directing your steps.
