Trusting God with Today’s Work

“Commit your works to the LORD, and your thoughts will established.”

Proverbs 16:3 (NKJV)

Every day brings tasks, decisions, and moments that can feel heavy. Some days we feel confident; other days we feel stretched. This verse invites us to shift the weight from our shoulders to God’s. To “commit” our work to the Lord means to place the day in His hands—to ask Him for clarity, strength, and steady direction.

When we trust God with our work, we’re not just asking Him to make things easier. We’re asking Him to guide our steps, shape our attitude, and bring purpose to what we do. And the promise is that He will “establish” our plans—He will steady them, align them, and use them for good.

Trusting God with today’s work changes how we show up. It brings calm where there could be stress, focus where there could be distraction, and confidence that doesn’t come from our own ability but from His presence with us.
So as we begin today, think of one task, one challenge, or one decision you can place in God’s hands. When we commit our work to Him, He meets us with wisdom, strength, and peace.

Father, we commit today’s work into Your hands. Guide our decisions, steady our hearts, and give us clarity where we need it most. Help us work with integrity, patience, and purpose. Establish our plans according to Your wisdom, and let our attitude reflect Your presence. In Jesus’ name, AMEN!
