I knew you were a God of tenderness and compassion.
Slow to anger, rich in graciousness.
Yet beyond all human comprehension.
A God of tenderness.

I approach Christianity with emotion.
And with joy.
But not really with reason
Although mere reason cannot a belief destroy.

I approach Buddhism with reason
Yet I feel no real joy.
And not really with emotion.
It’s not Christianity’s same alloy.

I pray for a God that is loving.
Rather than endless lives coming and going

………

What gives us most joy
Is it Christianity
I know the answer
