Bible Quote: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths." (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Native American Connection:
- Trust: Many tribes, like the Lakota, trust in the Great Spirit (Wakan Tanka) for wisdom and strength, akin to "trust in the Lord."
- Surrender: "Do not lean on your own understanding" aligns with humility in ceremonies like the sweat lodge, surrendering to spiritual guidance.
- Guidance: "In all your ways acknowledge him" reflects honoring the Creator daily (e.g., Navajo Beauty Way), believing it straightens life’s path.
