Today's Scripture
Proverbs 3:5–6, MSG
Trust GOD from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for GOD's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track.
Today's Word
We all have situations that we don't see how they're going to work out. We do our best to find a solution, but there are some things God doesn't want us to know. He has the solution, but if He showed you right now, it wouldn't take any faith. If you could see the provision, the healing, or the favor that He is going to bring, it would be easy to believe. The test comes when we don't have the answers. Thoughts tell us, "How are you going to make it after you retire? What if your health doesn't improve?" Sometimes there is no logical solution. The more we try to reason it out, the more discouraged we get. This is what faith is all about. You don't have to come up with a plan. You have to be comfortable not knowing.
Sometimes we think it's a lack of faith to say "I don't know." Take the pressure off. God knows. He has you in the palms of His hands. He will direct your steps.
