Poems

Promise and fulfillment

From the August 2023 issue of The Christian Science Journal


God’s promises 
arrive
completely formed
and fulfilled.

Promises of Life,
God-guided gifts,
like the seed,
arrive with all needs supplied.

We may feel that Truth
gives a promise of 
future good,
but look carefully
at the Giver:
It is Spirit.
It is Truth!

What Truth gives
is law and harmony.
It is the fact of present being,
Principle-established
perfection.

In God’s hand,
the promise and
fulfillment
are given
in one gesture.
