Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.
Proverbs 16:3, NIV

 Recommended Reading: Proverbs 16:1-9

Daniel Webster, the great statesman of other years, was once asked, “Mr. Webster, what is the most sobering, searching thought that ever entered your mind?” Without hesitancy, the staunch statesman replied, “My personal accountability to God.”

As we go through our daily lives we will inevitably make mistakes, but we can reduce them by taking a moment to pray about every decision, large and small. The Lord’s presence is near us, and we should ask Him for wisdom before sending that letter, posting that message, taking that job, having that conversation.

We certainly need His help with the big decisions in life, but the Lord also longs to bless the small ones too. When we commit whatever we do to the Lord, He will establish our plans. If we depend on ourselves with our faulty reasoning, our plans may falter. Take the time to pray first—make Him your accountability partner!

Trusting in the Lord, delighting in the Lord, committing my way unto the Lord, let me now just “rest.” Don’t worry. Whatever happens, just refer it to the Lord!
John Henry Jowett
