Supporting Appreciation
Richard Newton Sherrer 1951 (Easton)
O rejoice in the Lord greatly,
That now at length you have revived;
You were indeed concerned lately,
The opportunity survived.
Not speaking of being in need,
Learning in a situation;
To be content when I succeed,
In being a new creation.
For I know how to be brought low,
And the knowledge how to rebound;
I have learned about where to go,
And where the abundance is found.
I can do all things through His strength,
While I share my affliction;
That I persevere any length,
Avoiding sinful addiction.
You know that in the beginning,
No church entered in partnership;
Since the people had kept sinning,
Because of the poor leadership.
You did send me help for my needs,
Not that I was seeking a gift;
But the fruit that you sent exceeds,
Gives a motivational lift.
I have received my full payment,
While in being well supplied;
The sweet smell of the fresh pavement,
Is covering those that have lied.
For my God will supply each need,
In glory allowed by His wealth;
Through Christ Jesus able to feed,
Giving you good spiritual health.
