For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you should follow in his steps.
            "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth."
When he was abused, he did not return abuse; when he suffered he did not threaten; but he entrusted himself to the one who judges justly.  He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that, free from sins, we might live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.  For you were going astray like sheep, but now you have returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls.
1 Peter 2:21-25
 
"he entrusted himself to [God]..."  Jesus entrusted himself to God many times...most especially in the garden at Gethsemane; "Take this cup from me.  Yet not what I will, but what you will."  Mark 14:36 
 
How often I have made difficult decisions using logic...or lists of pros and cons to make "real world"  decisions.  But when I pray for God's help and meditate, the answer comes to me more clearly, more surely.  Sometimes the answer comes like a lightening bolt, or an inner commanding voice.  Sometimes not the whole answer, but the next step...and then the next...God enlightening our lives as we move along the path.
