God and Man - the Great Divide

Compare the evidence of a real divide
so far apart are truly God and man
the comparisons are really traumatic
consider all that covers this great span

God is far greater than created man
always eternal knows everything
fully perfect with no hint of sin
fully spiritual with great blessings to bring

God is never irritable, edgy, fatigued, or depressed
nor is stressed, moody, or never at all blue
His anger never ever had a short fuse
this God's word reveals what is true

Our God is above all possibility
of being touchy, cranky, or temperamental
instead is infinitely energetic, so unbounded
but also like Jesus was meek and gentle

This God is by far the greatest
He far exceeds all that's human
being eternal has always been here
so ask God to do what He can!

Dear Gordon, my heart rejoices in the fact that God is a spirit. Jesus became a man, but never sinned. We are human and mess up sometimes. This being said, we should strive to always follow His example. Your thoughts are beautiful and uplifting. Congratulations my dear sweet friend, on Poem of the Day. Many wonderful blessings to you. Hugs, Brandy

Gordon Your wisdom shines-in this great write, It quite blew me away! I’m We live in a world where God is not wanted, and there’s two things are Considered junk by many. His existence is quite questioned. It’s very obvious by the way the world is going.. The Bible, by many is unread No God no peace. Just vanity on all levels Here’s hoping that man finds out , they are not Him. A favorite . Blessings, Pangie
