Is The Father Just A Genie?

Is the Father above just a genie

That you go to with your list

Every time you need something

Your prayer is like a wish?

Just rub the magic bottle

When your life is in a jam

And poof, everything is better

By the power of the great I Am?

What happens when this genie

Doesn’t do just like you ask

Do you throw away the bottle

And say, “He just can’t handle my task?

Well the Father above isn’t a genie

To be at your beck and call

He is much, much more than that

And in your life can handle all.

His love is never ending

And He sees what’s up a head

To give you what you’re needing

Not just what you want instead.

He wants more than your wishes

Your life for Him to give

To love like He has shown you

And a relationship with Him to live.

So if you are still holding that bottle

Throw it away and seek His face

Write His Words upon your heart

So by His side you can take your place.
