Who Are You, God

Who are You that I have to fear You?
Who are You that I have to love You?
Who are You that I can't just do anything I feel like
and have You telling me what not to do?
Who are You that You can say anything you feel like and it comes to pass
- Whether it is good or bad?
Who are You that You can create or destroy?
Who are You that for a time being that we know You and know You no more?
Is this a case?
Well I just made a boo boo 
I messed up 
I did the impossible, incredible
I went over your wishes
And not listened to You
Are You still in love with me
and call me the one?
Or do You just take off and go?
I am testing You, God
I want to see if You say what You do
and your love is unconditional
I don't want to please You any more
It is a trying process
I want to see if You packed up and left
That would serve me right
That would serve You right too
'Cause I don't need You
Good riddance
Or is it?

James Horn July 29, 2015 at 9:12 PM Great but you can never test God and only yourself. He never needs to be tested. It is us that need it. There is no doubt that who the doubt is about is always us and not God. Jim Horn

Eric Boddie July 29, 2015 at 6:02 PM what you wrote is so well written....but the subject matter, of course, is forbidden....who are we to question Him....He Loves us unconditionally, and that's why I will Pray for you and them.....
