Satisfied in You

My thoughts gravitate to
familiar concerns.
I start thumbing through the list.
But, Lord,
I will be satisfied in You.
My concerns are legitimate,
but I will be satisfied in You.
When days appear good
or appear contrary,
when I seem successful
or lacking,
You will be my happiness,
my peace,
my rightness.

Life is not some great achievement
plus You
or some wonderful gift
from You.
Life is You, my Lord,
and You are wonderful.
You are happiness.
You are the fullness of all that is beautiful.
You are heaven
then and now.

Lord, in this moment
and forever,
I will be satisfied in You.
