My Thoughts

Proverbs 16:3, Amplified Bible
When I roll my works upon the Lord,
when I commit and trust them wholly to Him,
He will cause my thoughts to become agreeable to His will
and so shall my plans be established and succeed.

I have always looked at the first part of that verse and not really noticed the middle section. Today, it stood out as a great truth for all of us.
When we commit our works upon the Lord, when we roll our care upon Him, when we commit all our cares, anxieties and worries and works over on Him, when we trust Him with everything,

THEN,
HE WILL CAUSE OUR THOUGHTS TO BECOME AGREEABLE TO HIS WILL.

In other words, God is the One Who will cause our thoughts in our mind to line up with His will, which is His Word. Remember that Jesus prayed that His will be done on this earth. Isn’t that a wonderful reassurance! God will cause our thoughts to be in agreement with His. What a comforting realization.

THEN,
your plans will be established and succeed.

Ponder this verse in your heart for a while and there will be such a peace and rest that will surround you and permeate your very being.

He causes His thoughts to become your thoughts when you commit everything wholly to Him.
