Proverbs 16:3
Commit your works to the Lord, and your thoughts will be established.
Isn't that a GREAT verse?
During any one of our days, often we can find our thoughts running amuck, can't we?
The instruction that was given us tells us HOW to make a difference in our days. Thank God.
All we have to do is to commit our works to the Lord, and the word "commit" in the Strong's Concordance tells us:
galal (gah-lahl); Strong's #1556: To roll, roll down, roll away, remove. In Genesis 29:3, galal refers to rolling the stone from the well's mouth. In Joshua 5:9, the reproach of Egypt is rolled off from Israel. In this text, the reader is encouraged to roll his works into God's care (see also Psalm 37:5). The picture is of a camel, burdened with a heavy load; when the load is to be removed, the camel kneels down, tilts far to one side, and the load rolls off. From galal numerous words are derived, among which are galgal ("wheel" or "whirlwind"), galil (Galilee, literally, "Circuit" or District), gulgolet (Gaogotha, Skull: or "Head"), and megillah ("scroll").
Father, You ALWAYS have a good idea! You've told us that all we need to do is to COMMIT our works to YOU, and then our thought life would be established...IN HIM. Thank YOU for HELPING US do this! In Jesus' Name
