A letter to God, the First poem he gave me permission to write and share


Hey God, do you hear me talking to you?

Yeah, I’m angry but I’m still speaking to you 

You said you would never leave me, but I’m feeling pretty alone 

Excuse me, God, do you even hear me speaking to you? 

You told me to cast all my worries unto you- but I still don’t see you

Yo God, man do you even hear me speaking to you?

You call me your child but I don’t feel much love

Folks talking about your Heavenly Father from above

See man this is why I don’t even like speaking to you. 

I feel like my prayers never even get through to you. 

I really feel like my existence is some kind of joke to you 

Man, I said God..!



God's voice

Yeah, I hear you, I’ve been here the whole time. 

The problem is you want things in your time and not mine.

See, from before the earth was formed you had a mission, you just have to wait in my time for this plan to come to flourish 

You say I’m not listening but look at all I have done for you.

I mean, really, think of what I brought you through. 

You remember that song that got you through

How much that song ministered to you? 

Times that’s I get through to you

I love you so much I died for you, that’s how far my love extends for you. 

But, you curse my name take me in vein then say prayers calling my name

It’s the faith in my works that things will be revealed to you

But that’s okay for I’m not through 

For I have more patience than you do

The day you call my name like you were taught to do, that’s when an Angel will put you through

Because I placed you here for I have work for you to do

So yeah, I hear you but you gotta listen

For you have yet to receive your greatest mission.
