This verse comes up again and again in my life when I hear people defend their faith. I think that I’ve heard this verse used a lot as a hand wave. “You may think this thing, and I don’t have an answer, but your own understanding isn’t good enough to get you to the truth anyway. Just believe.” But I think that, really, this is a verse that calls for more thought, not less. To trust means to put weight on something. The reason your own understanding fails you is because it is like a flimsy guard rail; the second pressure is put on it, it crumbles and you fall into the direction you were already leaning. This must mean that if you push on your faith, push and test it, it will not be able to budge. However, that must mean that you’ve got a lot of testing to do. After all, what if you push on something you thought was of the LORD and it falls apart? Do you think that there is no such thing as truth? Maybe some do. But I think the best course of action is to realize that that thing you thought was God to you was just an idol that needs to be discarded for a pursuit of truth. I’m not the same person I was when I was a kid. I’ve done a lot of pushing and reevaluating over my life, and this year I want to dedicate to continuing to push and put my weight on truths to find the Ultimate Truth. I want to be the best man that I can, submitted to the best ways that I can walk, but I need to do more and more pushing to find that straight path. #bibleverse #bible #biblejournaling #biblestudy #bibleverses #verse #verseoftheday #dailyverse #verseoftheday📖 #verses #proverbs #proverbs3 #proverbs3v5and6 #proverbs3v5to6 #proverbs3verse5and6 #judaism #christianity #jewish #christian #religiousstudies #religioustext #tanakh #ketuvim https://www.instagram.com/p/Cm9GJcWun0W/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Let your heart ❤️ guide your way. I've heard this phrase so much in my life and I wanna talk about it for a quick minute. Following your heart can be HARD. It gets uncomfortable and many times people in your life won't understand. GUESS WHAT!? It's ok! They don't need to understand they don't need to agree with what you choose! It is your life, your heart, and your dreams! Go get em and don't forget to have God in it too❤️#proverbs3verse5and6 #newbeginnings #trentshelton #caughtintheadventure
