When you have a problem who do you turn to? Your mom? Sister? Dad? Brother? Aunt? Uncle? Best friend? Do you often find answers to those problems when you go to them?
Some don't realize that we can come up with all kinds of solutions for our problems, but that don't mean they are the right answers.
Proverbs 16:1
We can gather our thoughts, but the Lord gives the right answers.
Think about it. God is our creator. He knows our hearts, souls, every thought we have. Wouldn't it only be right if we listen to his commands he gives? God loves us and would never steer us wrong. He knows ALL!
Proverbs 16:33
We may throw the dice, but the Lord determines how they fall.
Even if we choose our own answers doesn't mean things are gonna turn out the way we thought they would. We can NOT stop God's Will! That is why God directs us in the right path. Stop what you are doing, pray, and read your manual (your BIBLE!). Listen to what he is trying to tell you. And remember
Proverbs 15:3
The Lord is watching everywhere, keeping his eye on both the evil and the good.
Don't ever think you can hide from him. He is everywhere. When you find yourself stressed out, think to yourself "It's ok for I know the one who knows All!" It's ok if you don't have an answer to your problems. You are not supposed to know the answers. God wants you to come to him and say "God I trust you!" What is stopping you from putting your trust, your faith in God? Are you ashamed? Your pride getting in the way? Afraid of what your friends or maybe even your family will think of you? Our lives here on earth are short, but what lies after our death of our bodies is what is most important! You rather live the word of God and spend all eternity in Heaven, or you live it your way and spend eternity in hell permanently separated from God. I am not sure who said this but it's my favorite saying:
"I'd rather live life right and die to find out there is no God, then live life wrong and die to find out there is!"
So when it comes down to it, who are you gonna let "take the wheel?" Yourself or God the creator of all?
