Read proverbs 3:5&6  Verse 5 has two opposites that help us to understand what trusting in the Lord is all about.  The first part tells us how much we should trust in the Lord.  We should trust in the Lord with all of our heart.  That is quite a a lot!  When a baseball player plays hard people say that he plays with all of his heart.  If a football player tries very hard to get the ball across the goal line he is said to be giving it all of his heart.  That is how we should trust God.  But the last part of the verse tells us the opposite.  We should not lean on our own understanding.  That means that we should not depend on our own understanding.  We may think that we know how to get to heaven, but our own understanding may not be correct - we have never been to heaven - we don't really know the way!  Only God knows the way to heaven because He lives there!  He knows!  We should not trust in our own wisdom.   We should trust in God's wisdom.  Verse 6 us that even though we may not know the way to heaven, we can trust in God to get us there.  If we will admit that the Lord is the boss of our lives, then He will show us the way to get to heaven and how we should act here on earth before we go to heaven.  And where do you suppose that we can learn about God and what He says about how we should live our lives?  That's right: in His Word, the Bible.  If we read and obey God's Word, and we act like He is the boss of our lives, He will give us direction in our lives.  He will guide us in the way that we should go and take us to heaven some day!  We need God now as we live and we need God when we die in order to take us to heaven.  And best of all, God wants to be our friend and to be with us every day.  And God wants to be our Savior and to take us to heaven when we die!  Let's let God be our boss and friend!
