Lean on God with Your Whole Heart - Proverbs 3:1-8 - 18th Sunday after Pentecost - October 12, 2025

Hello! Thanks for joining us. It’s easy to lean on our own understanding—to trust what feels right in the moment or what seems to work best for us. But God invites us to something deeper: to trust Him with all our heart. This message explores how the Lord’s wisdom is more than good advice—it’s life-changing grace. In Jesus, God not only teaches us what is right, but forgives our failures, renews our hearts, and lovingly guides our steps. When life feels uncertain or confusing, we find peace and purpose in the Savior who has already made our path straight through the cross and the empty tomb.

Proverbs 3:1-8

My son, do not forget my teaching,
    but keep my commands in your heart,
2 for they will prolong your life many years
    and bring you peace and prosperity.

3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
    bind them around your neck,
    write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then you will win favor and a good name
    in the sight of God and man.

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
    and he will make your paths straight.

7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
    fear the Lord and shun evil.
8 This will bring health to your body
    and nourishment to your bones.
