Draw closer to God
and He will draw nigh unto thee,
provided you’re willing to…
demonstrate actual honesty.
For He can always see
intentions written upon one’s heart.
Stop playing games and come clean;
otherwise, His Spirit may soon depart.
Jehovah transcends the boundaries of time;
So to Him, there is nothing new under the sun.
Start by freely accepting Salvation’s gift,
which was provided by the Divine One.
One can keep His presence nearby -
For He always inhabits our praise.
Open your mouth and sing of His joy,
during the remainder of your days.
Draw closer to God
and He will draw nigh too.
Know that He dearly covets a…
lasting relationship with you.

Thanks for posting to my group, Anythingwriting
Why is it, as you commonly suggest in the last stanza, that it must be the person to make the first move? Ask yourself, if a parent of a child right here on little old earth took the same position how long would it be before that child is dead?
My wife and I were just reading a book together this morning ("Waiter Rant") and it referred to the parable of the talents "lovingly" taught by Jesus. Let me ask you this: If I give you $1 million dollars or $10 ... how has the most potential for making more money? Jesus' lesson? ... Even the POOR have a HIGH chance of being suffled off to eternal damnation. Nice.
Religion? Where's the sense in that?
