Contentment in Christ

Contentment in Christ

A Poem by Melinda McQueen

Contentment in Christ

 

A peace in the soul,

Knowing you’re where you are meant to be.

A refreshing exhale,

Knowing you have all you need.

 

A whisper soft,

Yet spoken loud and clear.

A gentle lull in chaos midst,

Contentment in Christ so dear.

 

Let the world do what it may,

I am safe in my Father’s hands.

He is my trust

In all life’s demands.

 

Blessed beyond measure,

I have more than enough.

Wanting for nothing,

Contentment in Christ keeps me looking up.

 

Filling my heart,

I know what it is to be full.

But let me be empty

So He will be plentiful.

 

My everything, my all…

The reason I will rise.

Blessed am I to know

Contentment in Christ.
