    Questions about Proverbs 3:5

    What should I not lean on after I make New Year plans?

    January 5, 2027 reads Proverbs 3:5: trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. The resolution is not the lord of the year. He is.

    How is this different from the November 7 reading?

    In November the weight was on a conclusion you were too sure about. Today the weight is on plans you just wrote. Both refuse to lean your weight on your own understanding. January's idol is the fresh plan.

    How do I trust God with this year's plans?

    Pray the proverb over the list. Hold one plan open to correction. Trust him with all your heart means the plan can be revised without a crisis of identity.
