In our daily life, we are faced with all kinds of difficulties at any time. At this moment, who will you think of first? I remember that many times when I had no solution for problems, people around me would remind me: “Pray to God first and entrust your difficulties to God.” Then I realize when I faced difficulties, I would first rely on myself to find the solution. If I couldn’t solve it, I would ask for others’ help. But I seldom entrusted my difficulties to God and asked Him to guide me to deal with them. God’s words say: “So, in your opinions, what is the greatest wisdom? With your current statures and with the time since you started believing in God, in what way should you practice that possesses the greatest wisdom? You’ve never thought of this, have you? Say there is a person who appears incapable, slow of speech, and taciturn. But in their heart they have the greatest wisdom that no one else has. Most people don’t do what this person does and when they see this person doing this they think them stupid, that what they do is superfluous, and they say: ‘Why are you always doing this? You follow the rules too much and you believe in God in such a stupid way. Is there any need to do that?’ So think about it, what exactly is the greatest wisdom? (Always quieting one’s heart before God, praying more to God, being close to God in all things.) You’ve touched a little upon it here. What are you aiming for in getting close to God? (To seek out God’s will.) And what are you aiming for by seeking out God’s will? (To find a path for practice.) You’ve understood the general meaning. Is your aim in seeking out God’s will to be reliant on God? (Yes.) By relying on God, are you making things easier for yourself? God does it all so you don’t have to, so you don’t have to go to any trouble. Is this wisdom? Let Me tell you: The greatest wisdom is to look to God and rely on God in all things.”

Later, I encountered some difficulty at work again, I practiced praying to God and relying on God first. Instead of imagining many possibilities, I let go of myself and wholeheartedly asked God to lead me to deal with the matter. No matter what was going on with it, I was willing to cooperate with God. After that when I did my work again, I found that I gradually had some thoughts, and felt less pressure, and I was able to finish my work. Through such an experience, I tasted that having God’s guidance is truly good. From it I came to know that God is almighty and wise, and that nothing is impossible for God. Actually, no matter what kind of thing and difficulty we encounter in life, we can understand it and practice this way—relying on God.
