Hallelujah!
A question:
Where does a happy life
Begin?
With orienting your life toward Yahweh,
With paying attention to his words,
Treasuring his
Commands.
Doing life this way
Leads to strong, healthy families,
Elites of the land.
This wise way of living brings
Financial security.
The rightness and
Genuine character of such people
Can’t be tarnished.
Hampered and heavy,
Though they trip through dark times,
God still shines sun-bright on them,
Incandescent,
Gracious,
Compassionate,
Justice rich.
Know you’re better off when you follow God’s
Lead,
Being gracious,
Being generous,
Making sure all are treated fair and square.
You’ve got a solid foundation under you,
Unshakeable.
Live like that and you’re
Not easily forgotten,
Not afraid of bad news.
Opposite of worrying,
You’re trusting Yahweh.
Placid.
No timid heart here.
Quintessential confidence
Even among enemies.
Real generosity touches everyone in your life,
Including those in dire need.
Stedfast, you do right by people
And everyone knows it
And always will.
This is real strength,
Earning real respect,
Utter honor.
Vexed,
Those who only look out for themselves
Just grow jealous.
They see the righteous thrive and throw a fit.
Wasted,
They amount to nothing in the end,
X-ed out.
Yes, they and their plans
End up in the same dumpster,
Zeros.
