Trust the Lord with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths smooth. [Proverbs 3:5-6 (GW)]

Often we’re troubled because we want to know why God does what he does or asks what he does of us. It’s really not ours to know. The important thing to remember is that we don’t have to understand God to submit to him; we just have to trust him.
