Proverbs 3:5
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
God calls us to trust Him completely, even when His ways surpass our comprehension.
Human understanding is limited by our finite perspective, but God sees all things from beginning to end. When we lean on our own understanding, we rely on incomplete information and flawed reasoning. Trusting God with all our heart means surrendering our need to figure everything out and resting in His perfect wisdom.

Father, I release my need to understand everything. Help me trust You wholeheartedly, knowing Your wisdom far exceeds my own limited perspective. Amen.
