Our Irrational Faith

Proverbs 3:4 - 7

Have good will in the sight of God and man,
Trust in the Lord in your heart all you can;
Lean not towards your own understanding,
Rely on His word and all He's commanding;
In everything acknowledge all that He says,
For He will direct your paths all your days;
Be not a know-it-all in your very own eyes,
Just be respectful to the Lord who is wise;
Depart from all the evil that dwells within,
Asking for forgiveness to be free from sin.
Treating others with goodness and respect,
Impresses others and in God as you reflect;
Your spiritual radiance shines out through,
Displaying of your feelings for God is true;
Problems in life do not have to complicate,
Pray to our Heavenly Father to supplicate;
His wisdom will be giving you the direction,
To accomplish your tasks with perfection;
Following Him rather than earthly pleasures,
Ensures inheritance of Heavenly treasures.
