to GOD be the GLORY
~The Halves and Half Nots ~
By Deborah Ann
Some people’s glass,
always seems filled
while others only see . . .
what from it spilled.
Some people are happy,
with what from God they get
others over their portion . . .
grumble, bemoan and fret.
Some people’s glass,
is always brimming
while others only view . . .
how much is missing.
Some people are all right,
with their God given share
while others only think . . .
what is or is not fair.
Some people’s glass,
is always adequate
while others only watch . . .
how fast theirs dissipates.
But, we who trust in God,
don’t care how full the glass
for it is in heaven where . . .
our treasures we amass!
~~~~~~
Let your conversation
be without covetousness;
and be content with such
things as ye have: for he
hath said, I will never leave
thee, nor forsake thee.
But lay up for yourselves
treasures in heaven, where
neither moth nor rust doth
corrupt, and where thieves
do not break through nor steal:
