God Poem by Tom Zart

God never does anything haphazardly
His purposes have been with us since birth.
It’s up to believers to follow His footsteps
To transform and become all His goodness is worth.

If we wish to be known throughout our lifetime
As someone who trusted and served God’s will.
The best reward of living that we can achieve
Is when we love, provide, protect, trust and fulfill.

Though it’s never costless, it’s worth all effort
To expand God’s glory to every heart, mind and soul.
God’s spirit has blessed us from our beginnings
And to love Him in return should be our toll.

The world around us gains understanding of our faith
By how we speak, love, forgive, respond and perform.
The mystery of life with God as our Master
Enables us to weather disappointment, heartbreak and storm.
