Bible Verse of The Day – 4-19-21

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

As each day goes by, I live by this scripture more and more.

We are living in a time where we absolutely need to trust God 100%. There’s no other way for us to move ahead and be who He wants us to be if we’re not trusting Him in absolutely everything.

I wrestle constantly with what we’re seeing. I watch evil in plain sight. It is blatant. It is in your face. It makes no effort to hide.

But no matter what we see, I know that God’s providence will play out and that His plans are better than my plans or your plans.

I will admit that I would love nothing more than to wake up one morning and see that He has swept His hand across the globe and taken care of everything that we see happening.

But that is not my choice to make. It is His. And His ways are much higher than ours.

Isaiah 55:9 (NKJV) 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts.

He sees everything; the big picture. We see only in part.

So, I will lean on His understanding, not mine. I will walk by His plans, not mine. And when I’m having one of those moments where I feel like I can’t take seeing one more evil plot carried out in plain sight, I will surrender it to Him and trust Him even more.

In the meantime, I will continue to stand on His word, His truth and freedom in Jesus Christ.

I invite you to stand with me and watch as God carries out His perfect plan.
