Proverbs 3
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.

And He will make your paths straight.

But the companion of fools will suffer harm.

But with many counselors they succeed.

From my son's children's Bible...
Proverbs 3:6
In everything you do put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success.
It became a very special verse for our family...
