Do not forget my teaching, Let your heart keep my commands; The effects are far-reaching, Through each day as life demands. Because of the length of days, And all the years of your life; Peace will be adding the ways, Able to cope with the strife. Let not steadfast love forsake, Nor with mercy or the truth; Engrave in your heart to make, To remember from your youth. You find favor and success, In the sight of God and man; Understanding that will bless, And include you in His plan. Trust in the Lord with your heart, Lean not on understanding; Which will give you a new start, To know what is demanding. In all your ways acknowledge, He will straighten out your path; Because He will encourage, To follow and void His wrath. Be not wise in your own eyes, And turn away from evil; For it could be a disguise, That is worn by the devil. It heals your flesh and your bones, To honor God with your wealth; As the first fruits that you own, Are given for spiritual health. Barns are abundantly filled, And your vats bursting with wine; Good fortune will be instilled, Blessings from the Holy Divine. Copyright ©2022 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
