The Lord has filled me with joy, He shows a concern in me; Because of love I employ, Displaying what others see. Interested but with no chance, You have not showed in return; Relationships to advance, Honor and trust for to earn. I am not saying of need, Since I learned to be content; Whatever I can succeed, No longer will I lament. I have lived in poverty, What it is like being broke; As well as prosperity, Having a wealth that awoke. No matter the condition, The situation we face; God gives the recognition, Giving His mercy and grace. I learned about how to live, If I am hungry or full; Knowing that He will forgive, Remembering God does rule. When I have had way too much, Or if not having enough; God gives me a gentle touch, During good times or when tough. I can do everything, Through Christ who will strengthen; No matter what troubles bring, My persistence will lengthen. I look not for any gift, For the opposite is true; I am looking to uplift, Inspire others like you. God will richly fill your need, Through Christ in a splendid way; If you serve you will succeed, If you will trust and obey. Copyright © 2017 Richard Newton Sherrer Vote for this poem
