God Stories

 Little God Story #1


He kept God in his coat pocket

Ready to show to others

Whenever the circumstance required it

Cramping the Omnipotence like that

Seemed of little concern

Oddly, he never took God out

At home


Little God Story #2


God never appeared to him when he was walking

Or swimming or bending down to pick a flower

Or even when a child was on his lap

But when he knelt beside the bed

There was lively conversation

God had a lot to say

Though God didn’t seem to respond a lot

To begging


Little God Story #3


The church doors were always kept closed

To keep an eye on God 

So God could appreciate 

All the gold and silver and painted statuary

It was dangerous out in the streets

The seven deadly sins were everywhere


Little God Story #4


How could an infinite God fit inside 

Such an ordinary person

And when he left church

Did God follow him out

Does God still do miracles

And, if so, could he have one


Little God Story #5


By 10:30 am on Sunday morning

All the ministers, pastors and priests 

Had preached out the word of God

To many pairs of ears

And some hearts as well

Would the pulpit messages

Last a week they wondered
