What Would Jesus Find

 

Jesus walked by a church one day

A woman he did find

He asked if he could talk with her

Would she be so kind?

 

Jesus asked her a question

Something he had pondered in his mind,

“If I came to your house today,

Would such things I find?”

 

Crayon marks on the tables

Markers on the floor

Could I step inside and get beyond the door?

Would I find smashed cookies

And paper strewn galore?

Would I find an unholy mess

Or maybe even more?

 

Thinking hard to what he’d said

The woman made reply,

At my house this day,

No such things you’d find.”

 

Jesus sweetly smiled and gave a heavenly sigh

“Then why when I come home

I find such things in mine?”
