Day Three: Proverbs Road Trip

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

Honestly, there's too much in these thirty-five verses for me to make sense out of in one day - so I was drawn back to what I believe are the two key verses for the entire book of Proverbs.

I find myself trying to figure and plan on my own. It's not that I don't have the intellegence to figure some things out without God - it's just that I am incredibly LIMITED. My understanding fits inside of a 48-year-old-five foot, nine inch tall (and way too wide) box. God's wisdom and understanding stretches throughout all eternity. I am tempral, God is eternal.
Whenever I depend on my own understanding I always limit myself.

But when I seek God's wisdom and follow it, when I trust Him whole-heartedly, He always directs me.

Today my desire is to be whole-hearted in my trust in God.
