A Spiritual Common Sense

Proverbs 3:21-26

Keep a good sense, not to be a disguise,
Do not let a wise purpose leave your eyes;
For that'll truly be the life of your soul,
With grace for your neck to help control;
To go safely on your way with a good grip,
So your feet won't have cause for to slip;
When you take a rest you will have no fear,
As you sleep having sweet dreams appear;
Have no fear of sudden danger of a storm,
Coming from evil doers who will misinform;
For the Lord will be your hope and guide,
Walking the straight and narrow in stride.
Using common sense throughout your life,
Helps curb the tribulations and the strife;
It's just a matter to think of what to do,
And not allowing situations overwhelm you;
Never show any doubt for remaining cool,
The Lord keeps you from looking as a fool;
Always rely on God for giving you an uplift,
As common sense from His wisdom is a gift.
