What if God was all wrong

Abraham dared to challenge the Lord not to destroy Sodom if fifty righteous men be found Alas and alack, that just wasn’t to be yet Abraham continued his fruitless go-round What if 45, 40, 30, 20, what if only ten But in Sodom there weren’t any fine men The Lord knew Abe’s quest was hopeless, but He played right along which got me to thinking, maybe the Lord was all wrong Yet Abraham saw nothing in it; he went back to his place And so too should I – though I earn not a tad of God’s grace

Hello Gershon, your poem is thought-provoking and deeply engaging! I love how you challenge the traditional narrative with Abraham's boldness and the exploration of faith. The way you weave doubt and contemplation into your verses invited me to reflect on my beliefs. Such a compelling piece. I know my faith in God means to trust him wholly. Autumn Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

I prayed for mercy for our country…thankfully we are not too far gone for God to intercede, neither should we get comfortable. It matters, it all matters, and there is meaning in our intercessions even when we don’t see the results we want. Blessings, dear one! Keep asking God. Remember Elijah, though he thought so, was never alone in his faith.
