Trust: the Highest Virtue Proverbs 3:5, 6


   
Proverbs 3:5 KJV Images | Trust In The LORD With All Thine Heart
 
Trust is the command given from the Holy Word,
It’s given loud and clear; haven’t you heard?
It rings in our ears; it’s the greatest praise,
It springs from the heart as our hopes are raised.

In the Lord is the connection esteemed,
It’s through the Lord that all were redeemed;
Nothing else matters as in Him we recline
And to His will we purposefully resign.

Image result for images of Proverbs 3:5-6

With all thy heart is the commitment required
To grow in Christ and daily climb higher;
Not shirking in duty and from the fray having withdrawn,
But committed to the Spirit through the night till dawn.

And lean not to thine own understanding, heed!
This caution especially regarding the life we lead.
For many have been deceived and led further away,
Carried on wings of selfish desires that led them astray.

In all thy ways is the completeness I see,
It’s only in Jesus we experience true liberty;
With our eyes on Him in everything we do,
Safe harbour will be ours for the Bible is true.

Acknowledge Him is the connection I repeat;
Trust in any other will be sure to bring defeat;
Great men have lived and great men have died,
Jesus is alive forevermore it’s in Him we abide.

And he will direct thy path is the direct consequence
As we submit to Him with diligence and patience;
There is no other recipe for success in the here and now,
It will work for eternity, it’s a wonder! I say WOW!
 
Proverbs 3:5 KJV Images | Trust In The LORD With All Thine Heart
 
And so having heard the command to trust,
Make good the connection in the Lord, you must
With all of your heart is the commitment to pursue
Lean not to thine own understanding is the caution to you.

In all thy ways acknowledge Him the completeness of trust,
And He will direct your path the consequence of the just.
