Xavier’s journey through the desert is intense. In all of your ways, acknowledge him and he will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5–6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean to your own understanding. He hopes that you’ll follow your own feelings and rationale versus the direction that God has set before you.Ĭan you think of a time when you chose to do something that you really did think was right, only to discover that it was actually quite wrong? Trust that the Lord’s way is the best way even if it doesn’t appear to be. He makes things that aren’t right look right. Their initial instincts make them want to go the easy route because that “feels right.” But, this is often how the enemy deceives us.
