What If
What if Jesus, presented us first,
with the ones we considered lowest,
the ones we affected on earth,
but turned our heads,
looking for something more important
up ahead,
those who were counting on us
to hold their hands,
to cry upon our shoulders.
What if they greet us first?
Would we surrender in friendship
to the lowest on our list?
Perhaps the final test!
Do we love our Lord —
our final rest?
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you,
as the good book tells us to do.
The eyes on earth,
looking for hope —
for someone to care,
desperate for friendship.
...or do you chase after
P O P U L A R I T Y
with a cell phone glued to the ear
or fingers taped to a text?
Did you forget to look up
and see a human being
right in front of you?
Not judging!
Did I too!?
