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.

Trust in the Lord with All Your Heart
Proverbs 3:5–6 is one of the most foundational verses in Scripture, yet one of the hardest to live out. It reminds us to trust not in logic or feelings, but in the Lord's unchanging character. For men who carry the burden of leading, fixing, and solving, these words challenge us to stop leaning on ourselves and instead rely on divine wisdom.
Trusting with all your heart means withholding nothing. It means letting go of the false security of plans, control, and pride. Submitting in all your ways invites God into every decision — not just the major ones. It’s a call to surrender your career, your relationships, your reputation, and even your failures, knowing that God’s way is always straighter than yours.
When we let go of the wheel, God often takes us down a straighter, more purposeful path than we ever could have drawn up. Today’s verse is a quiet but firm invitation to stop trying so hard to navigate life alone — and to finally submit the map to the One who wrote it.
