CONVENIENCE STORE GOD

by Bill Kochman

11-20-2017

Oh we are such terrible creatures,
When it comes to loving our God,
We run to Him just when we need Him,
No doubt He finds this rather odd.

But God is not a convenience store,
He is the omnipotent King of Heaven,
We all need to love and respect Him,
Because He's not just your 7-Eleven.

Yes, He is always open for business,
Our God never slumbers or sleeps,
And His service is simply top-notch,
His promises our Lord always keeps.

Giving Him ear just when we need Him,
Such sad behavior really will not do,
How would you feel if your loved one,
Gave the same exact treatment to you?
