Our Leaning Post

Proverbs 3:5-Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

This is a scripture that is quoted a lot. We tend to quote it but are we really applying it to our lives. When various situations arise and we don’t have all the details we tend to worry, speculate, and over analyze. Calling and discussing the problem with various parties will only bring about monumental confusion. When everything is blown out of proportion we finally turn to God. God can’t be our last resort. He has to be the first choice. Like we automatically grab the cell phone in a tense situation we need to pray and ask God to help us automatically get on our knees or bow our heart.

Regardless, if we have all the details about the situation or not, God has the final say so. Our insight is limited but He is “The Ancient of Days”. He knows our ending in the beginning. He is Alpha and Omega! This over qualifies Him as the “go to” person when life issues arise. What is even better is that there is no appointment needed nor is there a consultation fee. He only requires one point of contact and His name is Jesus! Jesus it one of the most accessible people I know. No matter what time it is or where your location may be He can be reached.

It is left up to us to get God’s perspective and insight on life’s problems and situations. He is willing to tell us all He knows.

Jeremiah 33:3-Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

God’s advice and insight is the best we could ask for seeing that He already has ALL the answers. Trust Him when you don’t understand it all…
