Hunger For God
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

Forty days seems so short

Especially when no thought is given.

Why do we fast and pray,

Seems we can do that any day?

 

But Jesus showed us the way

By His example in the desert.

Seems as if God fasted,

And was tempted also.

 

Why should we not

Follow His example?

Hunger is known to many,

Should we not know hunger for God?
