Self – Righteousness Is An Ugly, Bottomless
Cup; Though The Self – Lover Pours, He Is
Never Able To Fill It.
Pouring Himself Into Himself Adds Nothing.
No Wonder!
For Nothing Plus Nothing Equals Nothing.
He Wants To Look Big, But Goes At It Backwards.
He Should Have More Interest In Being Than In
Seeming, And Than He Would Humbly Pour
Himself Out Of Himself Into The Service Of God
And Humanity.
Now That Adds Something;
Real Righteousness, Wholeness Of Self.
And That’s What Fills The Cup.
= Isaiah 64:6
+A Word +
God Of The Lily’s Cup, Fill Me!
I Hold This Empty Chalice Up.
=Frederic Lawrence Knowles 1869 – 1905=
