TRUST IN THE LORD!
Proverbs 3:5-6 – Devotional
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the LORD with all of your heart rather than relying on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will lead you.”
All of us have some core of reliance. It may be our physical attributes, our mental acumen, our family heritage, or some other basis of reliance. Then there are those of us who seemingly have little or no self esteem. We delight in the fact that we are nothing and therefore have no responsibility to do anything. BEEP!
There are some people who seem to take pride in belittling themselves and taking glory in that they are nothing. That foolish attitude reveals that they have become guilty of the pride in their humility. How utterly foolish!
I once heard a pastor share his dismay by a comment one of his flock shared after he had preached a message on humility. This person was simply glowing as she shared how much the message had meant to her. She felt she had very few spiritual gifts to offer the Lord, but she was proud of her gift of humility! YUCK!
We all need to lean more on the Lord and seek His leadership in our life. Jesus made it very clear that to offer a cup of water in His name was far more vital to a parched throat than the most eloquent sermon. Let’s live our faith!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and your actions!
