Daily Devotional: Proverbs 3
Verse:
“Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” — Proverbs 3:5-6 (NLT)
Explanation:
This verse is a powerful reminder to fully trust God, even when things don’t make sense or seem unclear. Often, we try to figure out our own solutions, relying on our limited understanding. But God asks us to trust Him wholeheartedly and to seek His guidance in every aspect of our lives. When we do this, He promises to lead us down the right path. Just like in training, where we need guidance to improve, we need God’s direction to navigate life’s challenges and make the right choices.

Whether it’s in your fitness journey, your career, or your relationships, God wants to guide you to the right path. Reflect on how you can lean more into His wisdom and trust Him with all your heart, knowing that He will lead you in the right direction.
Prayer:
Lord, help me to trust You with all my heart and not rely on my own limited understanding. Teach me to seek Your will in everything I do and to trust that You will guide me down the right path. When I feel uncertain or overwhelmed, remind me that You are always in control, and I can lean on Your wisdom and direction. Thank You for being my guide and protector. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
