How miserable the rich man
When his life is all askew.
He maybe even envies
The poor and all they knew.
What he doesn't understand
Is that some "poor" are rich.
For they have gathered treasure
And in Jesus found their niche.
So they don't feel poor at all.
In Christ they are sustained.
The store of wealth they have in Him
Can't even be contained!
God's wisdom flows in many streams
And covers all their need...
Sufficient for a blessed life...
A healing flow indeed!
"For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, through he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich."
II Corinthians 8:9 KJV
