Spiritually Wealthy

I am far from being poor,
Because I found the cure;
That has made me wealthy,
In being spiritually healthy.

I do not have much cash,
Kept hidden in my stash;
Since treasures of this earth,
Not even as equally worth.

For my account in Heaven,
That the Lord God has given;
Is priceless to say the least,
As my time here has ceased.

The inheritance that awaits,
Are earnings that compensates;
For trusting in Almighty God,
Devoting in honor and laud.

But also for my faith inside,
And willingness for to abide;
Knowing there will be a day,
Collecting my inheritance pay.
