My Love Is Not Good Enough For You

My love is not good enough for you oh Jehovah. How could an imperfect human give 
you pure and unsinful love. How could I give you untainted love. Why is it you want 
our conditional love father. Why is it you have begged human to make your heart 
rejoice. Why do you love us so dearly when you are the  one who is causing us to 
love you. This is a one sided love affair. Everything that you have given to us is on 
silver platter. What have I or anyone truly give to you. It is unfair of you to put up 
with us - to put up with our sinful maladies. I love you oh dear sweet father, but my 
love is toothless because I  cannot give you a unique and pure love. I feel worthless 
because my love is not enough. I want to give  you more than just sweet words. I 
want to give you the universe, but you have already that. What is it that I can give 
to you than just clinging to your laws. I give to you already my body, mind and 
deeds than what else can i give to  you my marshmellowy heart God. How sweet 
Jehovah, it is unfair to love you because every thing I give to you  you do not need. 
It is unfair to love you because I cannot get to squeeze you like a big teddy bear. It 
is unfair to love you because I cannot get to physically walk with you hand in 
hand. It is unfair to love you because love is a give and take process, and all I am 
doing is taking. So you see Marshmallow, how much you give and I take. How I lovve 
you my sweet-hearted Father. I will exert my strength to love you with all my heart 
mind, body,and yet it is not good enough.
