Submit Don't Quit

Point of View:
Life is full of crazy ups and downs. Sometimes we will be faced with trials that seem overwhelming and you might feel as if you can't go on, or that you don't have the strength. Well good news, you can't! Now you're probably asking yourself, "I thought you said there was 'good news?'" Well, there is. You can't, but God can! There will be things in our lives that we don't understand but God has a reason for everything. Remember, He will never leave us; He is always there.

The Challenge

I want to challenge you to submit to God and trust with ALL your heart! His plan is better than ours. If we do this, the Bible tells us that the Lord will make our paths straight. He is ready with the steamroller of life ready to make our crazy paths straight. The only question is, "Will you let Him?"

Prayer Points:
Points to remember in prayer:
* Thank the Lord for always being there to "make our paths straight" when life's full of twists and turns.
* Ask God to help you as you choose to submit to Him.
* Pray that you won't need to know why God is doing something and that your trust in Him will be your comfort. He is always with us.

The Word:
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6
