The Lighthouse: A Weekly Devotional by Dr. Abidan Shah

Trust in the Lord | Proverbs 3:5-6


Listen Later

Life often presents choices that feel heavier than we expected, leaving us unsure which way to turn. In these moments, God’s Word reminds us that we are not meant to rely solely on our own understanding.


Proverbs 3:5–6 (NKJV) says, “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.”


This verse isn’t just advice—it’s an invitation to walk with confidence, knowing that God’s guidance is perfect and His wisdom far exceeds our own. Trusting God means surrendering control, even when we don’t have all the answers. It’s about bringing every decision, big or small, before Him, and allowing His Spirit to lead us. When we acknowledge Him in every step, He promises to make our paths straight, turning uncertainty into clarity. Today, take a moment to pause and entrust your plans, worries, and questions to God. Lean not on your own understanding, but rest in the knowledge that He is guiding you. His direction is unfailing, and His love never wavers.
