God's Logic

God’s logic seems a foolishness to me,
God’s foolishness is way beyond my ken,
God’s logic has so much of mystery,
should we deny, when He wants an “Amen?”

The foolishness of God, Paul said, is wise,
to understand it, would we not be God?
We fathom not perfection in disguise,
for if we’d understand, that would be odd.

God’s wisdom may demand faith in response,
faith more than logic sheds sufficient light,
with faith, God satisfies our basic wants,
while logic's proud, it's faith that saves with might.

“Faith seeking understanding” fills in part
the yearning of my almost faithless heart.
