Stanek Sunday quote: “Trust in the Lord and he will make your paths straight”
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
~ Proverbs 3:5-6, New International Version, a beloved passage for many and a good reminder as we begin the new year

Dear God weve done a lot of talking lately. Please make the path straight.
paths straight?????
Some leftie is gonna call that hate speech!!! :-D
Well this ‘lefitie’ didn’t spot anything which qualifies as hate speech in what heather said Pharmer.
“paths” plural?
lean not on your own understanding – yes, well.
Yes, that verse in Proverbs to which this commentary refers, says “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.”
The word “paths” is plural.
My comment addressed the Bible verse itself, against the background of recent events.
It appears that Heather was saying her own prayer, and I would not be messing with that.

My comment addressed the Bible verse itself, against the background of recent events. – which events are those?
It appears that Heather was saying her own prayer, and I would not be messing with that. – isn’t saying “Some leftie is gonna call that hate speech” an odd way of doing so?
Amen.
One of my favorite verses.
lean not on your own understanding – yes, well.
In the words of Bob Marley: “cuz only a fool lean on his own misunderstandings.”
