The Blessings of Trust

Trust gives a purpose
To our earthly life.
Makes it rewarding,
And well worth the strife.
The virtue of trust
Can free us from care,
The lever of trust
Can lift from despair.
Trust calms troubled minds
In times of distress,
It serves as a balm
To soothe and to bless.
It's a safety valve
For our emotions,
It controls our acts
In great commotions.
It's a dynamo
Of Divine Power
That brings strength to us
In our weakest hour.
It sheds an aura
Of love and of peace,
It makes discontent
And resentments cease.
