Follow Jesus, He will direct your path

With the season finale of some of my favorite shows this week, I was very tempted to watch TV (including the final episode of the Niptuck series). However, I did quite well in my fight against temptation.

This week's scripture has to be my favorite Bible verse:

Trust in the Lord with your heart and lean not unto thine own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths. -Proverbs 3:5,6

This is my favorite verse because only God knows His plan for us. He sent his son to teach/guide us to paths of righteousness. Even though sometimes we may not understand it, he would never steer us wrong. I often get frustrated when things don't seem to go right, or as planned. (I am a bit of a control freak when it comes to certain situations)

One thing I need to learn to do is "Let go and Let God". When I do put all of my fears, ambitions, issues, etc. I am overwhelmed by a feeling of relief because I have faith that he will take care of it.

This week, I want to focus on putting it all in God's hands and letting Jesus lead the way. Enjoy your weekend!
