"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
You’re Trying to Figure It Out. But What If That’s Not Your Job?
Let’s be honest.
Some of us are over-thinkers.
Some are control freaks.
And most of us? We’re just tired of making the wrong decisions.
Maybe you’ve been trying to:
-
Save a marriage that’s hanging by a thread
-
Break a bad habit that keeps crawling back
-
Choose between two job offers with zero clarity
-
Figure out why the relationship you prayed for still isn’t working
You don’t know what to do, and you’re scared to mess up again.
And that’s exactly where this verse meets you.
God Doesn’t Need You to Have All the Answers, He Needs Your Trust
“Trust in the Lord… He will make your paths straight.”
This isn’t a vague promise.
It’s a map for chaos.
If you:
-
Trust fully, not halfway
-
Let go of what you think you understand
-
Submit your daily choices, relationships, and money to God
…then He promises to guide your steps with precision.
Not always fast.
Not always flashy.
But always faithful.
What This Looks Like in Real Life
❤️ If You’re Dating or Married and Feel Confused
Stop relying only on your gut or feelings.
Ask: “Am I truly submitting this relationship to God’s will or just hoping He blesses my plan?”
💰 If You're Drowning in Financial Stress
Don't just hustle harder.
Pause and pray: “God, where do You want my resources and energy to go?”
🧠 If You Can’t Stop Overthinking Every Decision
Trade control for connection.
Tell God: “I don’t get it, but I trust You anyway.”
He doesn’t just straighten the road;
He walks it with you.
Let This Sink In:
You don’t need to map out your entire life.
You just need to obey the next step God shows you.
The shortcut you’re looking for?
It’s not in a strategy or spreadsheet.
It’s in surrender.
And when you trust Him with your heart, not just your habits,
He clears the fog and brings peace to your path.
