Why? Poem by Bob Gotti

Why?



Very harsh and sometimes unfair, a distant God who truly doesn’t care,
These words used, sometimes describe, the God, who for all men died.
Used most by men who know not Him, people still steeped deep in sin,
With darkened minds, they can’t see, the love God has for you and me.

Many today, see this world going awry, and in their heart grumble why?
Why does a God know to be love, allow such evil from Heaven Above?
Why does He allow evil to exist, while existing above in Heavenly bliss?
Why doesn’t He stop all evil now, and rid all of the darkness somehow?

Many people today have much to say, about all the darkness in our day,
However, they have no reverent fear, of The Eternal God, who is so near.
Many people do not know my Lord, and Truth He revealed goes ignored,
Blaming all the darkness on the One, who sent us Light through His Son.

As men continue to reject His Grace, this world becomes a darker place,
And all that darkness continues on, through the evil which Satan spawns.
Many are blinded by Satan’s deceit, as he is leading a world into defeat,
This, as Satan knows full and well, that he is guiding souls right into Hell.

And they continue to question God, while they’re still on this earthly sod,
While never looking at their own sin, or questioning their own heart within,
Asking them self, while in this life, do they them self, need Jesus Christ?
As God’s question will be to everyone, why didn’t you listen to my Son?
