May 14th
It’s a “What Would You Do?” Day
LORD, MAY WE LIVE EACH DAY AND HOUR, IN SUCH A WAY, THAT WE WILL BE PREPARED TO GREET YOU INTO OUR LIVES. AMEN.
I want to share with you a poem whose original author is unknown, and I changed a little for my word to you today. I call it:
“What Would You Do?”
If Jesus came to your house to spend a day or two. If He came unexpectedly, I wonder what you’d do. Oh, I know you’d give your nicest room to such an honored guest, And the food you’d serve to Him would be the very best. And you would keep assuring Him you’re glad to have Him there…But…when you saw Him coming would you meet Him at the door with arms outstretched in welcome to our heavenly visitor?
Or would you maybe change your clothes before you let Him in, Or hide some magazines and put the Bible where they’d been? Would you turn off the radio and hope He hadn’t heard And wish you hadn’t uttered that last loud and nasty word? Would you hide your worldly music and put some hymn books out?
Could you let Jesus walk right in or would you rush about? And I wonder …If the Savior spent a day or two with you, Would you go right on doing the things you always do? Would you go right on saying the things you always say? Would life for you continue as it does from day to day?
Would your family conversation keep up its usual pace? And would you find it hard each meal to say a table grace? Would you sing the songs you always sing and read the book you read? And let Him know the things on which your mind and spirit feed? Would you take Jesus with you everywhere you’d planned to go?
Or would you, maybe, change your plans for just a day or so? Would you be glad to have Him meet your very closest friends, Or would you hope they’d stay away until His visit ends? Would you be glad to have Him stay forever on and on? Or would you sigh with great relief when He, at last, was gone? It might be interesting to know the things that you would do, If Jesus, The King of Kings, came in person to spend some time with you. Beloved, what would you do?
