SCRIPTURE

“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

THE ROOT CAUSE OF OUR FAILURES

Reflection:
We often fail because we rely on our own strength and understanding. We chase worldly solutions and ignore God’s wisdom. This disconnect from the divine source leads to frustration and unfulfilled lives.

What Next?
Practice surrendering your worries and plans to God. Seek His guidance through prayer and studying the Bible. Trust that His way is better.

Powerful Prayer Point:
“Lord, forgive me for relying on myself instead of You. Help me surrender my will and trust Your perfect plan for my life. Amen.”

Additional Verses: James 1:5, Isaiah 55:8-9, Proverbs 16:9

Further Readings: Romans 12:2, Jeremiah 29:11, Ephesians 2:10
