Comfortable? by louis gander Was He in comforts of His home or in a quiet place - did He have friends supporting Him or sleeping in disgrace? Did a multitude, He have, and did a riot start - or did He stand in court alone with still and quiet heart? Did He turn His AC on while in His leather seat - or was the load too heavy for His sore and dusty feet? Did He have mega speakers that impressed all of His peers - or did He hear the insults that had pierced His humble ears? Did He have His favorite cocktails or open soda cans - or was He holding something else in torn and painful hands? New shoes are quite impressive for the upper-class elite - or were new shoes not needed with a nail through His feet? Did He have roses - vibrant red, and crimson sky that warns - or was the red that streaked His face, from unforgiving thorns? Did He receive great pleasures in all He could consume - or was He the great sacrifice who laid inside a tomb? The world cannot be bothered with, these things that sound so grim - but when we love our comforts so, we can't give all to Him. |
