Proverbs 3: Trusting God

The book of Proverbs may be talking about wisdom and knowledge, but its not your wisdom or knowledge, its about God’s.

Verse 5 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.”

By our nature we are fools.  We need the wisdom of God.

We shouldn’t follow our own ideas and our own path, but instead we should follow the wisdom of God.

Verse 6 continues this idea: “In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.”

In everything that we do we should honor God.

If we do this, the Bible says that our paths will be made straight.
