Why Do People Complain
Viewed Last 24 Hours: 1 time

Why Do People Complain About God?

 

Quite often, I hear many complaints

When it comes to Godly “restraints.”

 

Often, things of God are

called “bigotry.”

As much of this nation indulges

In idolatry!

 

God?   Well, “we just don’t

need him!”

”Why should anyone ever believe him?”

 

Many churches provide

very little Godly direction.

They’re more concerned about

“getting people’s attention.”

 

No wonder why many don't

know what to believe!.

Drugs and sex is what many

 want to achieve!

 

God is really what’s needed!

Without him, our life is

never completed!

 

Rather than complain…

We need to praise him!

One day…  We shall all

kneel down before him!

 

It’s only in Christ…

We have purpose and hope!

Without him…  We’re on a

“slippery slope.”

 

Won’t you come and invite

the Lord Jesus in?

He’ll bless your life

again and again!

 

He gives true life!  That’s everlasting!

It can be yours!  Just for the asking!

About the Poet
I and my wife have 4 grown children and currently live in the Pacific Northwest. I've spent much of my life doing volunteer work in the food distribution for the needy among local churches. Many of the poems I've written are a reflection of times of adversity as a reminder of God's love and faithfulness. I've found many opportunities to share my poems with those who are hurting and discouraged. I'm thankful for the reports of many of the poems touching people's lives. I hope that the poems included on Wordchimes will touch and bless your life too!
