Dear God,
I'm sick of having various pieces of wool pulled over my eyes.
Some pieces are so thick I cant see, and I won't move.
Others are so thin and light I hardly know they're there
But it doesn't change the facts
a piece of fabric can't change anything.
I do believe in you.
I know sometimes it seems like I don't
but honestly I do.
I just don't always understand.
No wool, not the 'God works in myseterious ways' fabric
I just want a straight answer.
That fabric feels so nice and smooth,
comfort at first.
But eventuallly it turns scratchy and rough.
And people will start to blame you.
So can we avoid all that and just get an answer?

Good one! This one made me laugh.
Isn't that the truth with all of us. We just want a straight, black and white answer that we so seldom get with God. I myself am lucky if I even get a 'God moves in mysterious ways' line. More often then not, I just get stony silence. (The term is 'to live by faith and not by sight' but it's hard work, obviously.)
Well done, this is a great write.
God Bless. -
