By love, God made the universe;
By love, God created the earth;
By love, God made man and woman;
By love, God gave them each a soul.
By love, God cares for human needs;
By love, God watches over man;
By love, God gave Ten Commandments;
By love, God punishes man too.
By love, God made Heaven for man;
By love, God sent His son to earth;
By love, God had Christ die on cross;
By love, God nullified sins’ rod;
By love, God waits to embrace man!
The God of love made man with love;
But man with sins questions Him, ‘How? ’

A fine poem but with a particularly thoughtful ending. The theologian Jacques Ellul has written an entire book 'The Meaning of the City' on what Dr. Celes has summarized with two ending lines of a poem. Blessings, Bill Grace
God really loves us beyond our imaginative powers. We should also try to develop LOve for Godhead (Prema) .
I like your poem. It is really thought provoking for ordinary people. Take care. Gaurav

By God! Love was never vowed on so much by many. You excel on the theme with your conclusion.
