PROOF
By Daniel George
Inspired by Proverbs 9:10
I had a talk with an old friend
And while he tried not to offend
He argued that the Bible’s true
And challenged my Godless worldview.
If only I could know for sure
My unbelief would find a cure
If there’s a God I ask him now
“Show me that you exist, somehow!”
As soon as my demand was made
My consciousness began to fade
And in a trance or sleep I fell
What happened next I’m here to tell.
I stood in front of a white throne
Brighter than anything I’ve known
And as I fell down on my knees
I felt a calming, soothing breeze.
A kind voice told me not to fear
“I’ve heard your demand, so you’re here
Let us now reason and debate
I’m sure your arguments are great.”
Reluctant I started to speak
“Where are you when those who are weak
Are trampled on by evil men
Why don’t you help, I know you can
Why so much suffering on earth
Painful diseases from our birth
Add wars and famines and earthquakes
Plus many leaders who are fakes
Who rule by fear and spread the hate
With millions still killed by the state
You say you’re loving and you’re kind
Yet to our plight you remain blind.”
My boldness grew as I spoke out
Next thing I know I’m screaming loud
“Maybe you made all that we see
But you’re a no good absentee!
You want my worship and my awe
You say I must follow your law
But to a God that doesn’t care
I won’t bend knee, this I declare!”
“I have to say I’m quite impressed
I know you gave it your best
But once again the point you make
Proves my existence’s not at stake.
Like my Apostle said so clear
My Divine Nature does appear
In all creation that you see
There’s no excuse that sets you free.
Your foolish heart, it likes the dark
And it ignores my Divine spark
That I placed in each human soul
So that one day you may be whole.
So all the pain is your complaint
My caring you find it is faint
My goodness you refuse to trust
My word’s not true and I’m unjust.
I had this talk with my friend Job
Who had much more right to probe
I’ll answer you with just one thought
Because the Serpent’s lie you bought.
You see the stars in the night sky
And only ask how, but not why
It seems that you refuse to care
That all my glory they declare.
You found my code inside the cell
Yet fairy tales of Chance you tell
You want to live forever more
But you refuse my open door.
All pain and death you brought about
Yet you still shake your fist and shout
Men’s evil brought about the flood
My justice still demands your blood.
I know you still love that first sin
The one that Lucifer brought in
But if you set aside your pride
You’ll realize the serpent lied.
But in my love and in my grace
I chose the cross and took your place
When my beloved Son I gave
Who through His death conquered your grave.
Unclench your fist and take His hand
So in my presence you can stand
Because eternity won’t wait
Your free will determines your fate.
So in the end no proof will sway
Those who refuse to take my Way
I sent my Truth and Life on earth
And offered all a second birth.
I send no one to Satan’s hell
You pave the way when you rebel
I will not force one human soul
Against his will on heaven’s roll.”
I jumped awake in a cold sweat
Determined to bow knee, and yet
Even a dream so real and true
Offered no proof to change my view.
I thought about it for a while
As I walked down the road a mile
When a black van out of control
Ended my contemplative stroll.
I woke again this time in bed
With relatives who thought me dead
But now I welcomed all the pain
Because it brought me to His reign.
So listen to my heartfelt plea
Just take God’s gift for it is free
And understand our pain is here
To make eternal life more clear.
Death is God’s gift to all of us
To help us look up at the cross
Decide right now to bow your knee
And all His love and grace you’ll see.
