Trust Him

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding;

Prov 3:5 (HCSB)

Don't you wish that life always made sense? I do. There is a lesson I have learned over the years that God's plan and what He calls the Christ Follower to do does not always make "common sense". If we try to make all that God has us do fit our mold we will be very dissatisfied with God. From our point of view God doesn't always make sense.

So the writer of Proverbs has a very important message that I can sum up simply as, "Trust God not your understanding of things." We must trust God and know that His ways are always best. The Bible is full of examples of God doing things differently than our Human common sense says they should be done. In fact I think God rather enjoys confounding our understanding.

So don't rely on "common sense" but rather seek out "God sense" and trust Him with your life!
