Transcript

Hello, and welcome to Selah – a sacred pause in the noise of life.
 I invite you to find a quiet spot, free from distractions, where you can fully focus on God’s presence.
 As we move through this meditation, engage your heart and mind—visualize the scriptures, let the words take root in your soul, and repeat the prayers.

Today, we’re reflecting on Proverbs 3:5–6:
 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

This passage calls us to surrender our limited perspective and trust God completely. His wisdom never fails, His direction never misleads, and His promises never change.

Close your eyes.
 Take a slow, deep breath in…
 Hold…
 Exhale slowly…

"Quiet my heart, Lord. Help me to be fully present with You.
 I rest in the knowledge that You are here,
 shaping me, molding me, and completing a good work in me."

I take another breath in…
 And as I exhale, I picture myself standing at a crossroads.
 One path seems familiar and easy,
 but I cannot see where it leads.
 Another is less certain—yet I feel the Lord’s gentle hand guiding me there.

I choose to trust His leading over my own reasoning.
 Step by step, He makes the way clear.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.”

I whisper the words:
 “I trust You, Lord.”

Though I may not see the whole journey,
 I know the One who holds it.
 Though my understanding is limited,
 His wisdom is perfect.

Breathe in…
 Trust.
 Breathe out…
 Worry.

"Father, I confess that I often lean on my own understanding.
 I want to control the outcome,
 to know the full plan before I take the first step.
 But You call me to trust You with all my heart."

"I surrender my ways to You.
 I choose to submit to Your direction,
 knowing that You will straighten my path.
 Even when I cannot see,
 I will walk in faith."

I breathe in surrender…
 I breathe out control.
 I breathe in peace…
 I breathe out anxiety.

Let’s take another deep breath in…
 Hold…
 Exhale slowly…
 Speak these truths over your soul:

"I trust the Lord with all my heart."
 "I do not lean on my own understanding."
 "I submit my ways to Him."
 "He will make my path straight."

Breathe in…
 Faith.
 Breathe out…
 Fear.

Breathe in…
 Guidance.
 Breathe out…
 Confusion.

"Thank You, Lord, for calling me to trust You with my whole heart.
 Thank You for guiding me,
 for straightening my paths,
 and for walking with me through every season of life.
 I surrender again today,
 choosing Your wisdom over my understanding."

Until next time, I will stay in Your presence and let hope overflow.
 Selah.
