Trust with All Your Heart
Reading
Devotion
Knowing
God and trusting God are fully connected actions throughout the
teachings in
scripture. The more we come to know God, the more we come
to trust. And as we trust
God and find God faithful, the more we know
God's goodness and love. The proverbs in
today's reading point us to an
intimate trust in God in every aspect of our lives. They
teach us to
include God in all we do and trust God to make our paths straight.
We can
trust God for wisdom, strength, provision, and instruction. God proves
to us
God's faithfulness as we demonstrate our trust in God. The more we
know God, the more
we trust. As we grow in our relationship with God,
we come to trust God with all our hearts
in all areas of our lives.
Reflection
* How do the proverbs say wisdom is achieved?
* How are you challenged by the instruction to give the first of all your crops (v. 9)?
* When have you trusted in God and found God to be faithful?
* How can you become more trusting of God's good will for you?
* How are you challenged by the instruction to give the first of all your crops (v. 9)?
* When have you trusted in God and found God to be faithful?
* How can you become more trusting of God's good will for you?
Prayer
God, you are wise and kind and good beyond measure. Help me trust your
goodness
and seek you. And in seeking you, help me to know you. And in
knowing you, help me
to trust you more. Amen.
