When peace is missing from the plan

Trust the Lord rather than leaning only on your own understanding.

Proverbs 3:5-6

When peace is missing from the plan. This is where faith gets practical. Notice the conclusion that appears almost automatically. Bring the conclusion into the light before you build a response on top of it. You do not need complete knowledge before you can make a faithful decision. Let Christ lead the next faithful step even when the whole road is not visible. One faithful decision can interrupt more than you realize. Start with the choice that is actually in your hands today.

What wise counsel would you give a person you love if this were their story? Where are you asking yourself to live by a harsher standard?

Jesus Christ, I come to You without pretending I understand all of this. Keep me honest, teachable, and anchored in You as I respond. Amen.
