Snippet
Happiness is a place between too little and too much
Finish Proverb Snippet
Scripture
I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at last you have revived
your concern for me; indeed, you were concerned for me, but had
no opportunity to show it.[h] 11 Not that I am referring to being
in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have.
12 I know what it is to have little, and I know what it is to have
plenty. In any and all circumstances I have learned the secret of
being well-fed and of going hungry, of having plenty and of being
in need. 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me.
14 In any case, it was kind of you to share my distress.
Philippians 4:10-14

Everybody I know says they need just one thing
And what they really mean is that they
need just one thing more
And everybody seems to think
They've got it coming
Well I know that I don't deserve You
Still I want to love and serve You
More and more
You're my one thing
Save me from those things
That might distract me
Please take them away and purify my heart
I don't want to lose the eternal for
The things that are passing
'Cause what will I have when the world is gone
If it isn't for the love that goes on and on with
CHORUS:
My one thing, You're my one thing
And the pure in heart shall see God
You're my one thing
You're my one thing
And the pure in heart shall see God
Who have I in Heaven but You Jesus
And what better could I hope
To find down here on earth
I could cross the most distant reaches
Of this world, but I'd just be wasting my time
'Cause I'm certain already, I'm sure
I'd find You're
CHORUS
Every night and every day
You hold on tight
Or you drift away
And you're left to live
With the choices you make
Oh Lord please give me the strength
To watch and work and love and sing and pray
'Cause who have I in Heaven but You Jesus?
And what better could I hope
To find down here on earth?
Well I could cross the most distant reaches
Of this world, but I'd just be wasting my time
'Cause I'm certain already I'm sure I'd find
You're my one thing (one thing)
You're my one thing (one thing)
And the pure in heart shall see God
Sentence Prayer
Lord, help us not to conform to the patterns of this world but to
be transformed by the renewing of our minds. Give us a new
imagination to that we might live in ways that do not compute to
the logic of materialism and militarism. Make un into holy
nonconformists so that we might see the kingdoms of this world
transformed into your glorious kingdom. Amen (Common Prayer
a Liturgy for Ordinary Radicals 2010 Zondervan pg 421)
