| ¡°Trust the Lord completely! Don¡¯t depend on your own knowledge. Trust in the Lord in all things you do. Then he will help you. Don¡¯t depend on your own wisdom. But respect the Lord and stay away from evil.¡± ( Proverbs 3:5~7 , NIV ) |
|
Trusting in the Lord completely sounds like a fairly easy thing to do. We sing about trusting the Lord. We pray about trusting the Lord.
This scripture defines what might be included in trusting the Lord completely. ¡°Don¡¯t depend on your own knowledge.¡± Well, yeah, but why do I have knowledge if I¡¯m not supposed to use it? I hear the word, but I have trouble obeying.
One reason I fail to trust the Lord completely in my decision-making is that I arbitrarily decide that many decisions are too small, certainly not important enough to concern Him.
That is a ridiculous assumption, isn¡¯t it? God reminds us that He knows the number of the grains of sand on the beaches and the hairs on our head. I am the one putting parameters on what God will consider worth His time.
As adults we commiserate with each other that children must learn from their own mistakes. They just won¡¯t listen to our experiences. I¡¯m sure God and His angels wonder the same things about us.
Will I ever learn to trust in the Lord completely? To trust Him in all things I do? If I can, if I ever do, He promises to help me. |

God, help me learn to trust in You completely. In Jesus¡¯ name. Amen. - CONSTANCE ROBINSON, Hobbs, New Mexico |
