Trust in the Lord !

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your wisdom, acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3.5-6

Have you ever thought that your life was too complicated ? All the little details become mountains, and before you know it, it's cluttered with a thousand and one things you've never looked for. This can be done gradually, but complications soon take over.

We waste so much time and energy trying to change what can not be !

This is not what God has planned for you. He wants you to lead a simple and joyful life, not a complicated, frustrated and miserable existence. When you learn to bring everything into prayer instead of allowing stress to overwhelm you, you will be well on your way to a simple, more fulfilling life.

The truth is that life will not change. I do not think we can do anything to change our circumstances. But we can change the way we think, our attitudes and our habits - all areas that we are able to control. When we let God transform the way we think, our attitude improves and, as a result, our actions and habits.

We waste so much time and energy trying to change what can not be ! We are trying to change our spouse because we think we will be happier when it is different. We want to change our circumstances because we believe that then we can have the life we ​​want. What we need to change is our approach. Do you realize that you can completely change a situation just by praying ? You can transform a relationship just by giving it back to God in prayer.

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your wisdom, acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will make your paths straight." This is a way of life that seems much simpler ! On the other hand, if you rely on your own wisdom, things can suddenly become very complicated.

Chances are you can not do much to change your life. But what you can change is you !

An action for today

Learn to pray and trust in the Lord. It will simplify your life and smooth your trails.
