God often speaks to me through songs and this morning He put the song “Gold” on my heart by Britt Nicole. This is a special and beautiful song; the lyrics of the chorus go like this, “This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world. Whatever you’ve been told, you’re worth more than gold. So hold your head up high, it’s your time to shine. From the inside out it shows; you’re worth more than gold…” Wow, those are powerful words and what an impact they can make on our lives when we let the truth of them sink deep down into the recesses of our heart and mind!
In spending time alone with God this morning, He put it in my heart that I need to stop trying to figure everything out. And instead I need to follow the truth of His Word and trust Him with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding; in all my ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct my paths (Proverbs 3:5 & 6, NIV). The Message Bible says it this way, “Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track.” I love that!
