Description

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places….”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Contentment—how impoverished a word

To express the riches shed abroad through Christ!

“Contentment” hints that meager is the gift,

But “meager” does not suit eternal life.

In grace and fullness, far beyond my inklings—

Thus El Shaddai supplies my every need.

‘Tis not contentment, O my soul, thou lackest,

But heart to comprehend His love to thee.
