Letting God Do, What Go Does

Good Morning!! From the time I was eight or nine years old, I often thought about the future. There were many things I wanted to do, see and to be, but I was impatient. I wanted to know,...desperately at times,...what the future would hold. I thought I needed to see all roads, in order to choose the best paths,...and that didn't suddenly change just because I got older.

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thine ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.—Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV)

Funny, but today's verses has become my life motto. But, I have not always trusted God with all my heart, to the degree that I do now. As my faith and trust grew, I discovered God directing my paths, leading me into a world I never dreamed of,...or ever expected to see. Today God continues to give me opportunities that I never saw coming,...and I praise Him for it!!

First we trust,...and then God directs. The hold up, is caused by us.

Dear God, help us claim more fully Your promise to direct and lead us if we trust You. Amen.

"When we place our trust in God, we are secure today and forever."
