Whom do we lean upon when facing distressing situations, making important decisions, or resisting temptations? With good reason, the Bible admonishes us: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways know him, and he will make straight your paths." (Prov. 3:5-6) Note the expression "do not lean upon your own understanding." It is followed by "In all your ways know him." God is the One with a truly sound mind. Thus, it follows that whenever we are faced with a decision, we need to turn to the Bible to see what God's view is. This is how we acquire the mind of Christ.
