The love of God knew us ’fore conception; <br />That love gave us a human form at birth; <br />God’s love remains free from all deception; <br />The same protects and guides our lives on earth. <br /> <br />The love of God is unilateral; <br />Man can’t reciprocate the love of God; <br />The love of God for man is eternal; <br />The same grants mercy and a divine rod! <br /> <br />Could God then watch man lead a shattered life? <br />Does God want souls to land in hell’s abyss? <br />Would God forsake man in moments of strife? <br />The Maker wants all souls attain His bliss. <br /> <br />Why does then man forget Almighty God? <br />We ought to live as per His every word. <br />Copyright by Dr John Celes 4-22-2006<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sonnet-the-love-of-god/
