We sometimes ask God, "why couldn't I have had more?" "God owes me!" This poem is about that. God bless

"Better Than We Deserve" (Phillipians 2:4-11)

“A little lower than the Angels’”,
Came a man from "Galilee",
His name given was “Jesus”, our savior,
Born humbly, to a life chosen of poverty.

We all sometimes struggle, with an attitude towards,
Those who may have much more than us,
But we’ve all been blessed with so much more.

Christ came to us with unconditional love and sacrifice,
Dying on the cross for all of us,
Yet none of us born, He never deserved to die,
But He came to give us yet eternal life that much.

God doesn’t owe mankind anything!
We need to understand, that He already gave what He could,
It is our place to understand this message,
Jesus did all, God intended He should.
