The Only Truth That Matters
I do not know
about tomorrow.
I do not weep
about yesterday.
I do not worry
about the present.
Life's securities
What are they?
What are they worth?
This is hidden from my sight,
But it matters not.
I know
Just enough.
There is no possession
No wisdom
No power
No mortal Friend
That makes life worth living.
The Lord
Is my Light and my Salvation
Through Him I live
And for Him I would die.
As surely as I
Am the author of this poem,
So He too
Isthe Author of Life.
The pot is nothing without the Potter,
It does not belong to itself.
A flame does not ignite itself,
It does not choose
What its purpose is.
So too, I did not decide
What my purpose is
Why I live
For what I live.
And I thank God
for I am imperfect.
And my purpose,
That for which I live,
And that for which Christ Jesus died,
Is to make me perfect.
He is all I need
It is the only Truth that matters.
