Scripture:
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”
— Proverbs 3:5–6 (NKJV)
Points:
- Trust requires letting go of our need to control outcomes.
- Full-hearted trust is a surrender, not partial agreement.
- Our understanding is limited, but God’s wisdom is perfect.
- Acknowledging God in everything leads to peace.
- God promises to direct our path when we trust Him.
Poem: Trust the Path
The path may twist through fog and stone.
My eyes may strain to see ahead.
But you do not leave me alone.
You lead with care, not just commands.
You walk with me through every turn.
Trust is not built in clearer skies.
It grows when roads are hard to read.
It rises when I drop my plan.
It deepens where my mind lets go.
It blooms beneath your better way.
You never asked for part of me.
You called for heart, for trust entire.
You know how frail my thoughts can be.
You see what I could never guess.
You hold the map I cannot read.
Each step, each hour, I name you Lord.
Not just in church, but every breath.
In work, in rest, in grief, in hope.
In laughter or in silent pain—
You are the guide I lean upon.
Today I trust you with it all.
Not halfway, not with tight control.
You know the end before the start.
You write the road with steady hand.
And I will walk where you direct.
Prayer:
Lord, I trust You with all my heart. I let go of needing to understand everything. In all I do today, I want to acknowledge You. Please direct my steps and give me peace. Amen.
