Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise, and apply your heart to my knowledge; for it is a pleasant thing if you keep them within you; let them all be fixed upon your lips, so that your trust may be in the Lord; I have instructed you today, even you.
—Proverbs 22:17—19 NKJV
A question to self: “Do I trust in GOD?” As a younger man I would have said, “Yes, I trust in GOD!”
I’ve stumbled along this Christian journey. I look in Life’s rearview mirror. I admit I’ve not always trusted GOD. Maybe I could say, “I trust You, LORD; help me overcome my distrust.” But that’s a mask GOD sees through.
“LORD, I want to trust in You.” Now that’s better. That’s getting closer to honesty in self-examination.
