Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding...
Proverbs 3:5
It's right there... when you lean on your own understanding... you are not trusting the Lord... at least not with all your heart...
To use your own understanding... is to go your own way... not the Way...
I realized this today... as I look back and see... opportunities... graces... gifts... missed... by leaning on my own understanding...
With my understanding... fear... prejudice... pride... self- righteousness... keep me from trusting Him... with all my heart...
Beware... of your own understanding... put it aside... boldly surrender... be a fool... for Him...
Let no person deceive himself. If anyone among you supposes that he is wise in this age, let him become a fool [let him discard his worldly discernment and recognize himself as dull, stupid, and foolish, without true learning and scholarship], that he may become [really] wise.
1Corinthians 3:18 Amp
Father God... remind me... that my understanding... my reasoning... is foolish in Your sight... bless me with the boldness to trust You... walk Your Way... even when it feels... crazy...
