A Free Gift

We can never be perfect;

this is why

God gave us

a get-out-of-hell-free card.



All he asked for

is that we believe in Him,

and believe faith

is enough.



We are reluctant

to accept His terms,

because we’re used

to discovering a catch~



special conditions

not already stipulated,

the fine print on

the contract for eternity.



We know no good thing

is ever free, but

maybe that’s just what

society has taught us.



Perhaps the civilizations

before us

were not skeptical

of the deal.  



They must have accepted

Him with open hands,

deciding that every

other “truth” should be questioned.
