Trust in God, and He Will Guide Your Path

1 Peter 5:6-7
Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.

Proverbs 3:6
in all your ways submit to Him,
and He will make your paths straight.

All the rules, principles, laws, and the ways of the world must be followed along with entrusting things to God; otherwise, things will not come true. That’s why the Word of God is absolute. What is absolute will succeed, so you need to learn what is absolute and do things accordingly.

What is absolute?

The Bible says, “Be perfect like God is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). Many people say, “Well, it’s not possible for human beings to be perfect like God.” They look at it that way, even though it’s not true. We are human beings, but God told us to do things perfectly, absolutely. You can’t survive if you don’t do things absolutely and perfectly—this applies to even animals and larvae.

Some people develop a habit of misinterpreting the Bible and they keep their habit of doing it no matter what. Wrong perspectives should quickly be changed. You must read the Bible according to the ways of the time period and also think about the position God was in when He said those things.

Even during one day, there is a path

God is absolute. Proverbs 3:6 says “acknowledge God, then He will make your path straight.” There’s a path to live for a lifetime, and there’s a path to live for each day. God will lead you on that path well. Acknowledge God and know what is absolute. God will always give you the Word that applies to each of you, and when those words come, don’t use it just for that moment but for your entire lifetime.

Live your life always entrusting Him with everything and acknowledging Him. You must take action fully alert, consistently, and steadily. You need to receive wisdom in order to do that. Even if you work hard, if you fail to acknowledge God and trust in God, Who is Almighty and All-knowing, things don’t work out.

God’s time always comes gradually

That is why you don’t notice it. Just like the coming of spring, the temperature doesn’t get hot all at once. God’s history and blessings happen in the same way. Even if something is difficult, when you do it, then it gets done. You become resurrected in that area. One area to resurrect in is regaining your thankfulness, gratefulness, and your first love for the Trinity.
