Psalm

Ben Macnair

My friend says she is born again in Jesus.
Her Mother grumbles that her 18 hours weren’t enough.
Her Father shrugs, grunts something, and watches the TV.
My friend says God knows everything we do and think,
but if any-one of us did that, we would be arrested.
I wouldn’t want God to know everything I did.
I wouldn’t be able to finish this,
and I would like to believe that God supports free speech,
even if he does not agree with letting his son make his own decisions.
I wonder if God ever gets sick of all of these minor chord dirges
that old fingers play on a Sunday,
and wishes people would stop asking him for guidance.
Or, maybe he embraces it all.
It helps him to fill the time between the beginning and eternity.
He can only make so many planets,
and he knows we aren’t the only one,
but the other life is so far away,
and this civilisation still has wars,
and produced Billy Ray Cyrus.
My friend says she is born again in Jesus.
She says it is the best thing she has ever done.
She says that he is the best friend she ever had.
How can I compete with someone like him?
