AND AGAIN

 The story is: one night I woke up and thought about the five "One Things" of the previous post. Completely forgetting I had already written about them I wrote the one below.  I could blame old age but some bits of my memory have never been very good!

Secure in law-keeping;

Secure in your finances,

"One thing lackest thou":

A sense of need.                            Mark 10: 21

Conscious of the grace

That had given the light

"One thing I know ...

Now I see".                                    John 9: 25

One thing is needful:

To take the listening part

That Mary took:

At the feet of Jesus.                        Luke 10: 42

"One thing I do":

The aging apostle could say,

Delineating a way for me:

"I pursue".                                    Philippians 3: 13

"One thing I have desired

Of the Lord": to dwell in His house,

To behold His beauty,

To enquire in His temple".              Psalm 27: 4
