Christ Is The Example— Poem by Catherine Inscore

He calls me in the night
To listen as He speaks
I come not—
Life gets in the way…
He asks me to take a loaf of
Bread, to a hungry sister
I can not, my pantry has barely enough
For me
Sacrifice is too much…
Again, He calls upon me to
Administer to the sick,
But I can not find enough strength
For I am weakend by spirit
My knees have not bent enough…
I cry out for Him
For I am lost and without
His love, My heart feels void
Of compassion, generosity, kindness,
And joy—
He is there, holding me in His loving
Arms….
We need to be more like Him every day
Forgiving, ever loving and caring for another.
Christ is the Example—
He died to show us the way.
