Proverbs 19- Fight or Follow

 “A person’s own foolishness leads him astray, yet his heart rages against the Lord. 

Many plans are in a person’s heart, but the Lord’s decree will prevail.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭19‬:‭3‬, ‭21‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

Lord, I pray that I would not be set against You in my plans.  I have plenty of foolishness left inside my heart and mind, but I don’t want to be in opposition to You or Your plans for me!  I don't want to be fighting in a different direction than your plan, because Your ways are best and I know You will win in the end.  

Help me to see it early when I am pulling against Your will so that I don’t find myself fighting against You!  I never want to fight You, because I know it will be painful and I will end up going Your way in the end.  Better to put all my efforts into going with You and spending my energy in the same direction as You are leading.

I love You Lord and want to go where You lead because I know it is best for me!!!
