He shall direct your paths

“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.” - Proverbs 3v5-6

What do we do when we get to point where we really don’t know what to do next? I am sure that we have all had times in our lives when we have said, at least in our own hearts, “I don’t know what to do next!” In many cases, in fact in most cases, the word of God will give us all the direction we need.. We simply read His word and obey.

Other times we obey Bible teachings and principle and we still don’t know what to do in a particular situation. God’s word does not always give us specific instructions for day to day living. How do I know what job to take? How do I know where to live? When it comes to this kind of situation God does not leave us helpless.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
Don’t depend on your own understanding
In all your ways acknowledge Him
He will direct your paths
In those when the Scripture does not give specific instructions we can still apply God’s principles. If we are truly trusting Him in everything, let His word rule, and acknowledging Him, He will directs our very steps.
