Why worry when you have The ONE who can take care of all your needs? God has always shown us and told us that HE is our father and HE called us HIS son. One of the responsibilities of a responsible father is to cater to the need of his children while it is the responsibility of the child to trust his father and take all his care (needs) to him.

Admitting the knowledge of something or someone; recognizing it as a fact or truth; declaring one's belief in something or someone. 2. To be grateful of. But for this article, we would be looking at acknowledging as expressing recognition of the rights, efforts or authority of someone. What does it mean to direct? In simple terms: point out or show (to somebody) the right course or way; to guide, as by pointing out the way. You might be wondering, how do the definitions listed above relate with the topic? What significance do they have with the topic being explained? For better understanding, we go back to a verse in the Bible. Proverbs 3vs6: in all your ways acknowledge Him (God), and He (God) will make your paths straight . From the passage, we are made to understand that directions come when we acknowledge God. We will be shown the right path to walk in when we recognise the authority of God upon our lives. ...
