What if God Had E-mail
What if God had e-mail
That he only checked once or twice a day?
What if he could read it all
And then just throw it away?
Read his mail and push delete
That's all he'd ever do!
Think of all the mail he'd get
From people, just like you
People praying all the time
About this, that, and the other
People praying for their cat
Or for their best friend's mother
And you can forget about getting a reply,
He'd be too busy to even say hi!
With letter from people all over the place
MAIL MAIL MAIL, in his face!
Please, no forwards! He doesn't have time!
So much mail to read...
He's on his knees, begging and pleading,
"People, please take heed!"
"Too much mail, I just can't stand it!
Can't you just call instead??
Or hey, send me something snail mail!
I really have to get to bed!"
Sitting, clicking, reading mail
That's all he'd ever do!
He wouldn't even have time to play
If Jesus asked him to.
Definitely no time for miracles
Oh, what would everyone do??
The one person who can do everything
Is too busy emailing you!
So aren't you glad God doesn't have email
That he only checks a few times a day?
Aren't you glad he's always listening
To whatever you have to say?
~(c) Hollie, 1998
see why i love him!
