If God had further need of you. . .
I wish it could have been to love me,
because if any could be said to "Need" any other
then I probably fit that description
better than any!
Unfortunately,
God,
if indeed God exists,
does not care for the needs of my heart!

A good write aims.

There is a saying that I've heard many times through my life.

"God helps those who help themselves".

If that's the case who actually needs God? At best God is a passive onlooker to what goes on in this world. To be fair it is our mess, and you try to get your children to tidy up after themselves.

Heaven I feel is an exclusive club with bouncers with wings at the gates stopping the undesirables from entering. Or has political / spiritual correctness filtered upward?

Sorry to say aims, but I have a feeling you're not going to get much help on this from a higher power.
