Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes;
fear the LORD, and turn away from evil.
It will be healing to your flesh
and refreshment to your bones.

The verses are placing emphasis on trusting in the LORD soley, and not ones own mind.
Trust shows that the Godhead is whom the Christian must place their trust (Psalm 33:21; 119:42; Matthew 12:17-21). Some of the benefits of trusting in Jehovah God are:
joy (Psalm 5:11)
deliverance (Psalm 22:4,5)
triumph (Psalm 25:2,3)
lovingkindness (Psalm 32:10)
blessedness (Psalm 40:4)
safety (Psalm 56:4,11)
and guidance (Proverbs 3:5,6).
To eloquently sum it up:
"Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah." - Psalm 62:8.

It means we can not take our own wisdom & try to understand something that is spiritually, It takes a spiritual mind to understand God's word, A carnal mind will never understand it. It will be healing to thy flesh & refreshement to thy soul, This does not mean that a Christian will not get sick, But it means while we are sick we have someone to talk to & God can also heal, You will have that inner peace knowing that while you are sick, God is still with you.
