Just for today I will be unafraid, believing that as I trust in God with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding, He will lead me along a good path.
As we learn to live one day at a time, it's essential that we come to God with a willingness and intention to continuously surrender our will and our life into His care. What does that mean? What does a life surrendered to God look like? What steps can we take to implement this in our daily lives?
To trust God is to live with confidence in what He says can be relied on. That being true, the first thing we want to do is find out what God says. That is what daily prayer and meditating on God’s Word is all about. We get to know the path God sets before us. We learn about what God says works and become aware of the harmful thoughts and behaviours that cause us to stumble.
Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 28:26; 3:5-6 NIV)
Prayer: Loving God, Help me to walk in the path You have chosen for me and humbly submit all my unknowns, my frustrations, my worries and my fears, as well as my hopes and dreams into Your care. Thank You for leading me forward in the strength that You provide. Amen
