It takes much preparation to get a plane to fly 
The pilots have a checklist on which they must rely 
If they are not careful and skip some things to do 
The flight could turn disastrous for passengers and crew 

I’ve given you instructions in the Book of God 
On them you must rely as you walk along earth’s sod
If you pick and choose the instructions I have given 
It could prove disastrous if you’re not forgiven 

I’ve made you all connected as you traverse this life
If you believe My Word, it will keep you from much strife 
Go back to the manual when you’ve made a wrong turn 
Your life could prove disastrous if you do not return 

Trust in Me with all your heart so you will understand 
My Words are not suggestions, they are a firm command
Blessed is the man who delights in what I say 
They are not in darkness, but known as children of the day

Proverbs 2:1-6 – “My son, if you receive my words, and treasure my commands within you, 2 so that you incline your ear to wisdom, and apply your heart to understanding; 3 yes, if you cry out for discernment, and lift up your voice for understanding, 4 if you seek her as silver, and search for her as for hidden treasures; 5 then you will understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.”

Proverbs 3:5-6 – “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

1 Thessalonians 5:4-5 – “But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. 5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.”

Proverbs 2, 3
