We Would Never Know

We would never know what God wants of us We know how He wants us to be We want good things and on our terms We balk at the slightest oh no We see but we don’t see We live but we don’t live We moan We nitpick We know we shouldn’t We do it anyway We hear but cast it away We err We laugh We learn We love We pray We hope We take things for granted We care What does God want of us?

Thought-provoking write Toquyen! More often than not we take everything for granted and abide by our own rules. Well penned!
