A British survey found that Proverbs 3:5 was the "favourite" Bible verse of those polled.
But I have to wonder: how many of them actually understand it?

Especially in its context in Proverbs!
How many people can quote, by heart no less, John 3:16 and not have the foggiest idea of what it's actually saying.
Or Matthew 7:1 for that matter...

Well, I'm pleased that Sir Cliff, the most famous Christian convert in the UK chose a verse that is names the name of Christ. And I'm with Pam Rhodes, erstwhile presenter of the only Christianish program on mainstream telly, about Isaiah 49:15,16. And in the Telegraph too. I'm inordinately pleased that this made any kind of newsmedia at all. Small things please me, it's true.
Sorry, I seem to have lost the ability to proof-read.
