Proverbs 3:5-10

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 direct your paths.

Don't be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the LORD and turn your back on evil. Then you will gain renewed health and vitality.

Honor the LORD with your wealth and with the best part of everything your land produces. Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with the finest wine.

Last night I listened to Pastor Billy's sermon based on this verse. I rarely actually get around to listening to the CDs I get from the services when I serve in the Nursery, but this time I did and it was just what I needed to hear. It's a confirmation to me that God will be faithful in directing me to where He wants me to go when I am seeking His will (as I am this week). If my life had gone the way I thought it would when I was dreaming about my future in High School, I'd be a Music/Youth Ministry major at Eastern University in PA! Even though there are difficult things that I've had to deal with, if things had gone according to my plan and my understandings, I wouldn't have met Nathan, or been so involved in my church, or made the friends that I have, or have grown in the ways I have over the past few years.

I don't know where God's gonna take me, but I know that He will be faithful with me and it is better for me to trust in HIS understandings and let Him guide me.
