Proverbs 3:5-6 (MSG) Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track.
The measure of a Christian leader is how well that leader weaves his/her faith into the fabric of living both at home and at work. This verse is devoid of meaning if we relegate God to Sunday and forget Him Monday to Saturday. I remember when I first met Ray Brown (http://www.drbmar.com). On his desk was a little plaque with verse 5 applied to it. I instantly knew the measure of this man: his faith meant something to the extent that anyone in his office knew what drove him and how he ran his business. He did not buy into the scared/secular separation worldview. It is a myth that has no basis in Scripture. Who do you trust and listen to: mythmakers or your Maker?
