O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself;
It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.—Jeremiah 10:23
When I read verses like this, I rejoice and settle down to read more about how incapable I am of directing my own steps. God had a plan for Jeremiah before he was even born...He has one for me too. (Ps 139). I love knowing and being assured of that it is not in me to get through this life on my own. It takes the pressure that I lived with for far too many years off of me and that is such a good thing. (casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you). I looked up weakness in my Thompson Chain...posting pictures of some of the verses that brought comfort and peace to my heart this am.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.—Prov 3:5-6
A man's heart plans his way,
But the LORD directs his steps.—Prov 16:9
