Oh yes indeed, Jesus died because of Love, because His Father is full of grace and mercy, so is the Lord Jesus, no one s like, nobody is worthy of God's love, but through His sacrifice and faith through God's grace, we are all made worthy, well done, blessings Roy

Comment from Ginda Simpson
Thanks for reminding us with this poem, that we have little to complain about when compared to the suffering and loss that our Heavenly Father and his son suffered. I like the simplicity of your voice in this poem. It makes it feel that it is truly coming from the heart.

Thanks, Ginda. We have little to complain about, but we manage to complain just the same.
Comment from CD Richards
Well, it certainly fits the brief for the contest. I happen to agree - I don't blame God for any of my woes, either. The rhyme and iambic tetrameter work well, and the punctuation is flawless, as far as I can see. Well done, and best of luck.

Thanks for the review. I think this is a good reminder.

You got me with that one. I was just fussing about going back to work. It does make me think. Doesn't compare to sacrificing ones child and having him go through a torturous death. Well done. Gretchen

Thanks for the review, Gretchen. I need a little reminder, myself, once in awhile.

Wise words. For all those days I grumbled about the car that cut me off or the toast I made into charcoal... My goodness. The things we can fret about! We have so many more blessings than we realize! Thanks for the reminder.

Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Good entry for the
Spiritual writing prompt contest.
The rhymes and meter are not forced and the poem flows well.
the structure makes sense, it draws on emotions and it presents strong images.

Thanks, Gypsy. We should stop and consider things sometime.
Comment from Paul Manton
A nice 'homily' and moral tale rolled into one.
Good rhyming and meter: couplets and iambic tetrameter. Perfect. Basically, three quatrains, run through as one narrative.
God the Father is telling you about the sacrifice He has made for you and all mankind - and you have the nerve to complain about your trivial problems! Well, remember Calvary next time, and see if your problems are all they're cracked up to be.
A well thought out poem and a lesson for all of us. Thank you.

Comment from Bill Schott
This spiritual poem, Complaint Department, brings it down to this: You think you've got it bad? You don't know what bad is. Someone took your parking space? The Mets blew a three-run lead in the bottom of the ninth inning? C'mon! : )
