What if I Believed God Loved Me

It's an off day, and this kinda came to me. So while the format is off, and it's not my usual day. I'm feeling generous with my writing, there's no reason to pay. (It won't stop. Let's hope it doesn't flop.) UGH!!!!
Just for one day, what if God loved me.

Not in the way He loves everyone

Would He still have mercy, if only I believe

If I took it to heart, the matter was done.

Would I live different, if I really believed

Would I look at my brother with a change of heart

Would my actions be different, what could I achieve

Would I lift people up, instead of tearing them apart

This kind of thought is intemperate to be sure

It's not modern or slick, or sophisticated, or cool

It's not the way to get ahead, the nom du jur

But just for one day could I capture that jewel?

Could I really believe God's love was for me

Would I change, could I change

How would I be

What things in my day would I rearrange

Such thoughts are for Sundays, Pastors, and Missionares

I'm busy with life, with my job and family

My everyday life is too full of cares

I just don't have time, so I can't believe

Not even for one day.
