"Commit your way to the LORD, and your thoughts will be established." -Proverbs 16:3
"Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass." -Psalm 37:5
My Andrews Study Bible says the word 'commit' literally means to 'roll off onto' or 'roll'. So the verses could read, "Roll your way to the LORD" or "Roll off your way onto the LORD."
When you roll your way to the LORD He takes care of the rest. He fulfills the promises He made to you. He takes your puny little thoughts and puts His magnificent thoughts in your head. He brings to pass the incredible plan He says He has for you. (Jeremiah 29:11)
The next time life tries to kick you in the face, talk to God. (That's how you roll.)
The next time your parents overstep their bounds in your marriage, tell God about it. (That's how you roll.)
The next time that sister at church brings a better potluck dish than you, ask for God's thoughts. (That's how you roll.)
The next time you have a fight with your husband or wife, get on your knees and commit your marriage to God again. (That's how you roll!)
God's ways are higher than my ways. His thoughts are greater than my thoughts. My wife and I choose God and His plan. That's how we roll.
