Our father is surrounded by all creation,
But he feels lonely
Because the one true creation
That he created in his image
That is men and women
Offer him worship
That comes from hearts
That are often impure
Meaning the person may be baptized,
But their hearts are not baptized
From us he wants our minds and hearts
To be pure in his love, mercy and everlasting compassion.
He is lonely because men and women sin
Doing things that were not meant to be done
And if people don’t repent from their bad deeds
And they don’t say they’re sorry to God
And they don’t make restitution with their fellow man
How can God be pleased?
He’s also lonely because many people
See him, and his only son Jesus, on Sunday
As if they were thinking
That their true source of love, light, and life
Needed to be worshiped only once a week
He has done everything for us.
And deserves our love and respect
Every day of the week
Amen
I love your idea of God feeling lonely when we do not accept His forgiveness, love, and help to be loving and compassionate ourselves. Maybe that is why God said in Isaiah 43:25 “I will blot out thy transgressions for ‘ mine own sake’ and will not remember thy sins.” I always wondered what that meant. Good suggestions for ways to make God happy.
