Charles Stanley on Wholehearted Trust - Traditional (Proverbs 3:5-6)

Source: Charles Stanley47 words

"Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart—not partial trust, not backup plans, not safety nets, but complete, wholehearted reliance. When you trust completely and lean not on your own understanding, God directs. It's a promise: trust fully, and He guides." — Charles Stanley. Traditional: wholehearted trust.
