Just Stating the Obvious Poetry Contest
Not one is perfectly happy on earth
Still we praise God for his
bountiful agape love and worth
If God were powerful as everyone affirms
Why doesn't he end all our problems?
Why doesn't he do something that confirms?
Every one is suffering, for many life is unbearable
If he were a true father, he should end all agony
With true love his actions are no way comparable
Scriptures state we suffer for our sins
When we sin he watches without forcibly stopping us
Either he lacks power or doesn't care if we sin
God is heartless and merciless of all
No one can sin and get away with it
Every sin we do, punishment does befall
God is as helpless as me and you
If not helpless at least moody for sure
All you ask he will not give you
I feel God is neither bad nor good
He is a mere spectator doing what he should
He is doing it all maybe for livelihood
It is obvious, who is God we have still not understood
About God, we have merely read and heard
We have not seen him, he is definitely misunderstood
