Trusting God with All Our Heart

Written By Lettie Henley

“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 3:5-6

There is such beauty and peace in giving complete trust to God. Sometimes, life feels uncertain, plans change, circumstances shift, and our understanding falls short. Yet, this passage calls us to surrender all our doubts, fears, and limited wisdom to Him.

Trusting God with all our heart means letting go of the need to control every detail, leaning on His greater understanding, and accepting that His plans are perfect, even when they don’t match our expectations. It’s about acknowledging that He knows what’s best for us and choosing to follow Him completely.

This is His promise: “He will make your paths straight.” When I surrender my own understanding and submit every part of my life to God, He guides me, making the way clear, even through difficult or unfamiliar terrain.

I choose to trust in God's wisdom fully. I will lean on His promises and submit my plans to Him, confident that He will direct my steps and lead me into His perfect purpose.

Prayer:

Father, I surrender my understanding to You today. Help me to trust You with all my heart, even when I don’t see the full picture. Teach me to submit to Your guidance in every decision and every step I take. Thank You for the promise that You will make my paths straight as I faithfully trust in You. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
