Thee Lord Pay the Bill

Once upon a time Man asked God Free Will

                For he thought that it would be such a thrill

                     God gave Man what he asked for

                       Then Man asked a little more:

                 Me, do as I please, Thee Lord, pay the bill!

 "Neither did I, my friend, M.M., however I wished to stress the fact that Man asks God to do everything for him but Man on the other hand is not willing to do as much for God. I know you are a very upright critic therefore your comment is a vote of confidence that I have succeeded without revering less our LORD! Thank you, Marugu Mo, for your visit and comment!! "

Michael Tor Date: 11/20/2015 12:49:00 PM Demetrios That was very kind of you to go through the trouble to rewrite all the comments. That was a caring act I hope all those that commented appreciate the effort you made for them. I want to thank you for them my brother. A 7 for this so clever truth Richard has so eloquently mirrored my thoughts. Login to Reply

Richard Lamoureux Date: 11/19/2015 10:50:00 AM Thankfully He was willing, for we were lost in a pit dug by our willful hearts. Jesus's cross provides a bridge to freedom and still many choose to follow their own woeful hearts. Login to Reply Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 11/19/2015 3:24:00 PM So true! Do we have to sacrifice Him each day? Thank you , Richard!

Jan Allison Date: 11/19/2015 5:47:00 AM Oh Demetrios this is happening to you too often:-( time to ask Santa for a new PC! I especially love the very clever last line:-) hugs jan xx Login to Reply Demetrios Trifiatis Date: 11/19/2015 5:59:00 AM Dearest, Jan, I have reached an age that I do not like to bother Santa for anything! haha! Yes, it happens a lot. When I delete something then it deletes the next poem in line. Terrible. I have to be more careful and turn my PC off after I delete something. Sorry. Thank you! The last line is the whole point!
