All Ya’ll Platitude Spouting Mealy Mouthed Preachers Are Wrong!!

.
.
Amongst other
Nonsense
It is lazy
And damned CRUEL
To say to anyone
Overburdened with care
And struggling to do
What is right and
What has been asked,
“You are never asked
To carry a heavier load
Than you are able to carry.”
.
Ha! how many times have
You swell headed idiots
Said that very thing
Just so you wouldn’t
Have to actually do
Some work, yourself?
.
I am here
To tell you that
God regularly asks
Us to carry burdens
Much too heavy
For human beings.
.
Perhaps this is
To keep us humble?
.
Or more likely,
It is far too
Amusing to resist.

    Well said. I like the sentence re burden as it somehow can keep you going if times are rough but I hate it as well as in those moments it seems like a big pile of BS. And I think some people simply have never been in a situation where they really had to carry a heavy cross…

  2. Loved your last line! If that is true we really have a human God with a sense of humor.
    Take care Bear
