"You Are Sufficient"
psalm. YOU ARE SUFFICIENT Jesus I come to rest in the knowledge that you are all I need. When I am sad I place my sadness on you and I am comforted. When I am happy I throw my joy toward you and you double it. When I am searching I come to you and find. When I am bound I hold my chains out to you and you release me even if my chains remain. You are sufficient because you completely surround me. I need nothing else. ---- by Ulrich Schaffer, in "Greater Than Our Hearts: Prayers and Reflections" Harper and Row, 1981. [This poem actually reminds me of "Psalm 23." Why not try your hand today at a personal prayer/poem. It doesn't have to rhyme and you don't even have to show it to anyone.] HE IS (still) RISEN INDEED!! Have a great week, Chip Stam |
