God Wants You

~God Wants You~ 
(Free Verse) 



God can have anything that He desires as you may know by now, 
But He wants you to come to Him in your own time, 
Because that's what you really choose to do with your life 
And God gave us all the will to choose between wrong and right 

God wants you to accept Him as soon as possible, because 'He loves you' and, 
That's what you really want to do with the rest of your life, 
And not because you have to, God doesn't have to force anyone, 
He didn't created any robots, but created us perfect in His own image 

There are innumerable times when we find ourselves faced 
With terrible tribulations and undesirable pain and sorrows, 
And when we don't know with certainty what to do or where to go 
Jesus wants to be right there with you in all your problems and your woes 

God wants you to accept His only Begotten son, the One who died for you and me, 
Jesus wants to be the center of your life and come to live inside your heart too, 
God wants to be always there with you and me for the rest of our remaining days, 
He wants you to seek Him and call Him every time that you may need Him to… 

There are many who only seek Him and call out His mighty name in times of trouble, 
And God so loving and forgiving wants to be there with you always, no matter what, 
He desires more than anything your unconditional love and prayers to Him, in everything that you do, 
He just wants to be your best friend, and cherish every single happy and sad moment everywhere, with you!

Mazhar Butt Date: 3/25/2015 5:42:00 PM I liked the first two stanza's and the 3 lines of the 3rd Stanza. After that you switched God for Jesus. That restricts the poem for Christians only and seems to mar its ethereal beauty because this shift doesn't conform with the beliefs of others who believe in the Unity of God. Anyway, your sentiments are appreciable being those of a God-fearing person. Keep up the good work!!

Emile Pinet Date: 2/8/2015 10:18:00 AM This is a light, innocent poem with an easy beat that carries a subtle message of love and faith. Excellent in both from and delivery, written for and by a believer in God’s message of love.
