Trust and Believe in Jesus Devotional (word from the Lord series)

Trust not in your own understanding but lean unto Mine. I am with you and do go before you always. Have care, not to get caught up in trifles unnecessarily but trust and believe in Me.
Your ways are not always mine but know that you are learning and growing in Jesus, my son.
Your obedience shall bring forth fruit in my vineyard. Go unto your Jerusalem and I will open doors for you to speak about and share your Jesus.
Psalm 119:34
Give me understanding, and I shall keep Your law; Indeed, I shall observe it with my whole heart. (NKJV)
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths. (NKJV)
Prayer: Lord Jesus thank you for being willing to teach and have patience with us! Help us to soak up the fact that our understanding is, well, pretty puny and Yours is beyond compare and help us to act like we know that at all times. AMEN
