No Strings Attached
Dawn Wolf
14 Sep 2003
I have my own God. He is good.
And strong.
And nuturing.
When I've hurt myself or someone else,
He comforts me.
He has a great sense of humor.
(forinstance, he laughs when I bump my head)
He probably even wrote:
"Help! I've fallen!
And I can't reach my cross!"
He invented roller coasters.
And rock music.
And sex.
And chocolate-chip-cookie-dough ice cream.
He knows your God.
They surely are friends.
They probably consult on God-issues
like salvation and sin.
They don't always agree.
Because they are different.
(Yet they're very much the same.)
My God, like yours,
has His percieved faults.
He forgot to give Hitler a conscience.
He should have made more people colour blind.
He made it way to easy to become a parent.
He forgot to make the earth people-proof.
But all-in-all, he's got it together,
and I love Him.
And if your God turns away
because you sin too much
and you watch football on Sunday instead of praying,
or because you question His existence,
you are welcome here.
No strings attached.
