“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6
I was brought up Catholic with a very spiritual mother, and I thought I knew the Lord and I trusted in Him. But in my own understanding, which was loving Him through fear and following all His rules and regulations, I thought I had it all together.
In reading His words in scripture I found out how much He loves me. I now fear Him through my love for Him and realize more and more how much I cannot lean on my own understanding. I must put my trust in Him.
These words were and continue to be true in my life. I have nine children and my husband died when my youngest child was four years old. I leaned on the Lord and He and I raised my children. I trust in Him; He makes my pathway straight--even when I make a crooked path.
