In That Chair
What if Jesus is in that chair
And we just pass Him by?
What if all we do is stare
And He does not know why?
What if when we see Him there
We think that He is "odd"?
What if Jesus fits no mold
That we would make for God?
What if in our “busy”-ness
We fail to stop and smile?
How could our own needs be met
By going the extra mile?
Might we be uncomfortable
In helping one of these?
Might we glimpse the face of God
While bending to our knees?
What if our own fear of them
Who different from the rest
Keeps us from God’s true calling,
Denies us of His best?
What if Jesus waits in that chair
And we just pass him by?
God help us to reach out and care
Help me to only try.
