God Bother

Christ is my Brother and for me He died,
God made Creation and He is my Father,
the Holy Spirit is Love personified,
a Trinity of love, so I must bother.
O God, You do intend to bother me,
with eyes of faith, I see You everywhere,
with constant interplay, O Trinity,
You pray I, faithful, bother You in prayer.
This bothers me a lot, as well it should,
Your constant presence finds me thinking of
how I must bother more about how good
I should be and so grant You love for love.
“O bother,” I say like old Win thePooh,
You bother me, Lord, so I’ll bother You.
