Poems

God Is Not Withholding

From the January 1952 issue of The Christian Science Journal


God is not withholding.
All His wealth is ours.
Coming as impartially as dew upon the flowers,
Or as music chiming from the steeple towers.

God is not withholding.
Our sufficiency
Is the full outpouring of divinity:
Yet how small the cup we hold to infinity.

God is not withholding.
Bounteous fare is spread
Whether we be hungry for heaven or for bread.
Promised land or wilderness, man is always fed.
