Understanding life

We think we understand everything but only a little of what goes on
For we humans are so insular & underhand so little-minded
We want to understand but in reality we miss the plot
What is it about us tiny-minded little humans that God loves?
Created in His image may be wonderful but unless we pray
To understand more of God's wonderful plans: we all fall short!
The intricacies of human ego & our precious hard won lives
Simply shrivel beneath the enormity of God's designs for us
What He wants us to do is look inside our very selves: desire
To see just a tiny part of what God has deigned for us to see
Then in being blessed with the vision into another's soul
We must step back a pace to really understand it all!
For God sees & works not as we humans see & work
But as He was meant to: He is all powerful: all-knowing
He knows each & every heart & soul as no other can
He is the one who really understands: He has lived upon this earth
He is the creator of us all: our maker: our saviour: our everything!
Yet we will not allow Him into our hearts: we'd rather take on Satan
Yes we'd rather give in to Satan's wiles & believe his lies: his tricks
We are so easily drawn into his tangles web because we have no faith
Oh Lord what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to achieve
Please forgive us for the stupid little problems: we set ourselves
Please help us all to see the bigger plan: the majestic reality
That could be if only we: little humans could forgive each other for 
Our silly little words that come out at ill-chosen times
When we think we are doing good but in reality we stuff it all up!
