in God we trust

Was reminded today in a time with an old friend, to:
Trust in the Lord with all my heart, and to
Lean not on my own understanding, but
In all my ways acknowledge Him, and
He will make my path straight.
This was particularily helpful because I feel like I'm constantly struggling with the flip-flop of doing what I know (from playing life over in my head, like a game of chess, if I do this, I know this will happen, or if I do that, I know this will happen) or doing what is unknown (the Lord often only let's us see less than one step before us, and so we cannot lean on what we think would be the outcome, but rather trust in Him. This is truly a life-long lesson that we Christians face day after day, moment by moment.
