How Not To Offend God
How Not to Offend God!
The best way to not taunt God I think Christ makes clear
is not saying, “I grok God,” but “trust in God's Grace.”
From the day soul’s assigned us and lives in our flesh
till the day that flesh dies, there’s no act that redeems
us from sin that’s not gift we derive from changed hearts
where the artist is God, and we serve best as clay!
Do you dream you offend GOD by calling God, “Fraud?”
Is your death ‘fraud’ or not? Yes, or no? Who can tell?
It’s the lukewarm lives God loathes, hot/cold lives holds dear!
That you’re awed: say, “God's Fraud!” God says share the same face!
For your doubt is a rose that He knows and deems fresh
as the best. Rare’s the doubter or pundit who schemes
to put God in a headlock, punts, plays for best parts
on earth’s stage, when a fight looms retreats from the fray!
Are the ones who ask questions or silent the odd?
Let me trust God (Truth’s Arrow), drink life from that well!

Poet's Notes:
Warning: While most of my poems are based on my interpretation of Biblical Scripture, I make no claim that my interpretations are infallable. They all simply share the truth as I know it. Be Blest!
