Should I fight with Him?

a poem by R.A. Jacob

Should I fight with Him?
As he kneads the clay,
Should I fight with Him? 

As he blocks my way.

You have the right to,

Block of my path,

If I from my folly,

Just do not depart.

You know better,

You are a sound judge,

In your discretion, 

My soul doth trust .

Your punishment is for my refinement,

It’s a tool to set me right,

You block all the path of destruction,

Which I find too bright.

Why do you love me so much?

Such love is too hard to find,

What I had to bear as recompense,

Is borne by you Oh Christ.
