Contemplation on Matthew 25:31-46. Started on about 7/12/22. Poem: Which Me are You? OR You, Me and God We have a thing You said you were hungry I saw you and I knew “Provide,” my heart said, So I gave. You, Me and God have a thing. You said you were thirsty. I heard you. I know. My heart said “Give,” so I gave. You, Me and God have a thing. You said you were a stranger. I could tell by a face I had never seen. My heart said, “Invite him in”, so in he came. You, Me and God have a thing. You said, You needed clothes I dared to look but look I did and I could tell. My heart said, “Give of your bounty” so I did. You, Me and God have a thing. News said, you were in prison I heard, I know Caring, I visited. You, Me and God have a thing. Only God knows my end. (The old me.)
You said you were hungry I saw you and I knew it. “So what” my heart said, So I went on. You, Me and God have nothing. You said you were thirsty. I heard you. I knew it. But my heart said “so what”, so on I went. You, Me and God have nothing. You said you were a stranger. I could tell by a face I had never seen. My heart said, “Don’t invite him in”, so I closed the door on him. You, Me and God have nothing. You said, You needed clothes I dared to look but look I did and I could tell. My heart said, NO WAY”. So of my bounty I refused. You, Me and God have nothing. News said, you were in prison I heard, I knew Not Caring, I didn’t visit. You, Me and God have nothing. Only God knows my end. Larry E.
