Sufficiency
in the Lord
alone
Others, things
we hold
with open hands
That which
we grasp
we lose
What truly
sustains us?
Or who?
People
relationships
things
give temporary
joy and energy
soon enough
all
go away
What and
Who
are we left with?
How sad
we regard
Him
as the last
resort
The Source
of our breath
and each heartbeat
oxygen and life
to every cell
sight to awe
at His creation
We are made
to rejoice
and be happy
fully satisfied
in Him
but we long
first
for what
goes away
God in heaven
help us
Matthew 6:33New International Version (NIV)
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
