God Sick of Me?

Does Christ get sick of me because I ask
too much from Him Who’s given me so much?
I seek His help whenever I have a task,
whose sure success somehow I cannot touch.

I knock on Jesus’s door repeatedly
because He said, “Ask and you shall receive,
seek and you’ll find,” He has encouraged me,
“Knock and it shall be opened,” I believe.

“I am the way, the truth, the life,” He said,
and too, “My Kingdom’s like a mustard seed,”
that soon into a giant bush will spread,
as my small prayer will soon fill up my need.

O Christ, You won’t get sick of me, it’s true,
so long I don’t get sick of asking You.
