Choosing Fullness



 Bible Verses About Blessings

When the emptiness of all that is not
Compares with the fullness of all there is
Weighed in the balances of thought
I blush beneath heaven’s kind kiss
And though I’ve born the pity-glance
Of those who do not understand
I close my eyes and wildly dance
In gratitude; God holds my hand

When want and wishing dare to taunt
And boldly wage a worldly war
Spreading before thought’s gaze the vaunt
Where emptiness and fullness spar
Then with a purposed, pleading prayer
I whisper ‘Lord, how great thou art’
And though life’s scales tip with its care
I choose His love; God fills my heart
