Proverbs The Plans Of The DiligentWe all have plans, objectives and goalsThat flow from a core down deep in our soulIt feeds our dreams and fosters our visionsIt shapes our schemes and contrives our decisionsFor whom and for what dose one diligently seek?Some change their plans when the way turns bleakFor many there’s a shaky foundation in placeFor others the bedrock of Gods glorious graceStill, many seem diligent but wrongly I’d sayTheir lying and cheating will sweep them away Like a fleeting vapor or a fading breathTheir perseverance like a snare will lead them to deathBut the diligent for righteousness, virtue and truthWho stand for the poor, broken down, destituteNever ease from the goal or turn back from the lightBut gaze ever forward on our Lord Jesus ChristWe press on for the prize of what lies aheadIn joy we strain forward to the rising of the deadThis upward call resolute we pursueBecause He who began a good work will see us through
