God Aint Never Too Busy

Every time, I pick up the phone
 Ones I love are never home 
Or they want me to leave them alone
 Sometimes, I just want to talk
 Or for someone to take me for a walk
 I can never depend on them for spiritual elevation
 Or some type of positive motivation 
The times I prayed for my last breath 
No one helped me from falling to my death 
The times I ached down to the bone
 They faked not being home 
Oh God, what about me?
 He said, “All you have to do is give me a ring”.
 I help billions strong and still have time
 For you and everything 
You’ve cried in pain until you were dizzy
 But call on me, I am never too busy

So true, God is never too busy. I am so thankful. Truly, at smaller I’ll or greater, many can’t be bothered. Yesterday, I wanted a little sympathy, but it did not come. Gathering up my wits. Hugs

Well, he was to busy for the Holocaust and the Great Leap Forward, to name a few.
