Give God Time

We want to control everything: our future, our relationships, our finances, our image. And when something gets out of our control, we panic. But Proverbs invites us to something radical: trust God wholeheartedly and not rely on our understanding alone.

This does not mean being irresponsible or passive. It means recognizing that there is a God who sees what you don't see, who knows what you don't know, and who can do what you can't. Trusting Him is not weakness; it is the greatest expression of wisdom.

Giving God time involves giving Him the areas where you want to be in control. That relationship that you try to fix on your own. That financial problem that keeps you up at night. That uncertain future that fills you with anxiety. Say, "Lord, I trust in You more than in my own ability."

When you let go of control, you don't lose power. You gain peace. Because peace doesn't come from having everything under control, but from knowing that God has everything under His control.
