trust

Trust in the Lord with all of your heart; lean not on your own understanding. 

Acknowledge Him in all of your ways; He will make your paths straight.

Those verses were in the passage I read for today (Proverbs 3).  After pouring out my complaints to God, I realized I needed to trust Him, even when things are going on that I don't like.  In times like these, I so much want to lean on my own understanding, demand my own way, and tell God that I've got it figured out and I know how things should be and why doesn't He just do things my way and we'd all be a lot happier.

This verse tells me to do otherwise.

Even when I don't understand things.

Especially when I don't understand things.

I need that today.
