Your Will Oh Father

Our Father who art in Heaven, Hollowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven (with an agitated voice) Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven (with a calmer voice) Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.....mmmh! Is this the will You were referring to? Is this the will that we should succumb to? Is this the will that we are now accustomed for? Is this it? Is this the Will? Well......well I don’t like it! Neither do my brothers and sisters who think You have turned Your back against them! Or have You? I don’t mean to sound rude, but in sound mind and body I write this letter to You, anyone would see that we’re screwed! Jesus, I don’t mean to intrude, but.... Our strength is unrenewed, Our souls yearn soulful food! Our souls yearn for a new fire! Our souls yearn for you Oh Messiah! The world sees us as liars, deceivers! “Where is The God you preach about at church on a Sunday morning? Is He not going to come down and rescue you?” Your will hurts Father Your Will is just too much!
