7-1-2022 Devotion: Trust

 Proverbs 3:5: “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not on your own understanding." We must have a continual regard to God’s providence, must own and depend upon it in all our affairs, both by faith and prayer.  We must place our entire confidence in the wisdom, power, and goodness of God, assuring ourselves of the extent of his providence to all the creatures and all their actions. We must therefore trust in the Lord with all our hearts; we must believe that He is able to do what he will, wise to do what is best, and good, according to his promise, to do what is best for us, if we love Him, and serve Him. We must, with an entire submission and satisfaction, depend upon Him to perform all things for us, and not lean to our own understanding, as if we could, by any forecast of our own, without God, help ourselves, and bring our affairs to a good issue. When you trust God's Sovereignty and Providence, it is easier to trust in Him regardless of the circumstances. God's way is the best way. Trust Him.
