Linking up for today's Five-Minute Friday. Where a group of us join together and write for five minutes flat. "Unscripted. Unedited. Real" {Lisa-Jo}
Today's Prompt: PATH
GO
Life is a journey—a winding road with twists and turns. Sometimes it’s hard to see where the path is leading and fear and uncertainty fill my heart with dread.
What should I do? Where am I to go?
I’m bombarded with decisions and questions and worries that torture my heart. Through valleys and rugged terrain the path stretches on. The unknown of what lies ahead brings fear and an anxious spirit.
But then I hear it.
His voice which gently whispers, “Trust in me with all your heart, stop trying to figure it out on your own for I AM the One directing Your path.”
As He speaks my heart fills with hope. His words bring comfort. He is my Peace.
Then I rest.
In His promise.
In Him.
STOP
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and he shall direct thy paths.” {Proverbs 3:5,6}

ReplyDeleteOh to be still long enough to hear the gentle sound of His loving voice!
So good to be reminded of the need to rest in Him - thanks. (visiting via the Gypsy Mama).
ReplyDeleteso grateful when He speaks to us words of comfort and truth...Proverbs 3:5,6 is one of my favorite verses...thanks for visiting my blog, and nice to meet you, Rachel :)
ReplyDeleteRachel,Proverbs 3:5-6 was on my mind all day yesterday, too. The Lord also brought two other verses to mind: I Peter 5:7 - "Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for you," and Psalm 55:22 - "Cast thy burden upon the Lord and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." What wonderful promises the Lord has given us in His Word!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts.
