A God We Don’t Fully Trust

Why second guess the Lord?
Are His blessings our concern?
When His rain falls on the wicked
Is their worthiness ours to discern?
Who are we to question the Lord?
Do we think His thoughts are our thoughts?
Can we stop the sun, part the sea,
Create even one miracle He’s wrought?

Why would we question God’s grace?
Have a say in who He chooses to bless?
If He gives the whole world to others
Does that mean that He blesses us less?
Who are we to question God’s choice?
Or why would we think that we can?
For God gives and God takes away
According to His pleasure and plan.

Why would we question God’s laws?
And argue with what He decrees?
Have we somehow convinced ourselves,
That we can see all that He sees?
Somehow we better learn to accept,
That God knows what’s best for us.
For we will never submit our lives
To a God, we don’t fully trust.
