"Reflect upon your present blessings of which every man has many - not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some."

Good God, Why Me?
by Duncan Cary Palmer
You could have chosen someone far more fit
To champion your honor in debate.
A brilliant scholar, schooled in word and wit,
Whose logic captive minds might liberate.
Perhaps you should have picked an artisan,
Aesthetic sensibilities replete.
His stunning output minds and hearts would win,
His artifacts, a testimony sweet.
Good God, Why me? Why choose this reprobate?
Why bother with a man so deeply flawed?
I feel so weak, so unable of late
My fellow man to turn toward thoughts of God.
But, as you've chosen me, I'll sing your praise
Throughout the universe for endless days.
