An Argument with God

Why choose me? Who am I? A soft voice whispers, You are mine.

What if I fail? What if I fall?

Again, it says, Before you walk, you must crawl.

Trust me. I don’t have what it takes...

Steady and patient,

Who’s the canvas to tell the artist of what it’s made?

I won’t! I can’t! Find somebody else!

Stern, yet supportive,

You will. You can. I am with you. Believe in yourself.

Say I go? And I let you down?

Tender and caring,

Follow where I lead, and I’ll turn it around.

I want to, but I’m scared.

Confident and true,

Love overcomes all fear, and I love you.
