[hometext] => I would like to think that I would have known this man, and let him in when he knocked on my door? Would you?
[bodytext] =>  WOULD YOU HAVE KNOWN HIM? If he knocked on your door today......... Would you have known this man? Standards of today would have found him very poor in every way! No home, no bed, no money........ he would be arrested for vagrancy today! Companions were lowly and poorer than he.........yet, he loved them warmly. Those with wicked hearts hated him intensely The 'good-hearted' loved him immensely.  Perfect kindness, joyful, with a warm loving heart. His love for all mankind was easy for him to impart. Widows and fatherless boys must be embraced at any cost. Generous, giving, he was not prejudice for he healed any lost. No halo over his head as some would depict........ He was not "Holier than thou" rather a humble subject.  He stated, "Let the little children come to me........... Children know a truly kind person, even his sandals were comely, A perfect imitation of his Heavenly father, no man ever greater. Did he really exist? Historians state a huge "Yes!" Carpenter's son, he was hated, and put to death they confess.  Deeply compassionate, forgiving, full of pity tender-hearted, merciful, and sympathetic. Women especially loved him, no sympathy in their world, he was it! He came to tell and show how we will fare..... Under his Kingdom (or government) arrangements he will share. A man with a powerful personality, affected human history remarkably Even our calendars are based on the year that he was born. BC (Before the Christ) and AD (In the year of the Lord) none scorn  The greatness of a man can be measured by what he leaves to grow. He started others to think along fresh lines with vigor after thousands of years even in our day they show. One of the finest of all his qualities he was approachable, The young, old, poor rich, sick, crippled, even sinners found him their equal.  "A perfect image of His Loving Father..... open arms with warm embrace, Would you have been ashamed to be seen with him, or would he be a disgrace? When you saw him die a most ignominious death would you have still been his friend? What King, for his subjects today is willing his life to extend? When you saw him suffer, and cry out would you have cried? He was hated! Ask if you were his friend, would you have lied? Miraculous resurrection brought him back. He died for you, would you let him in if he knocked at your door......... or holdback? Created by  April 05, 2006 I wish I knew who sketched these lovely images, I'd like to give her credit for her beautiful work! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My source was the Bible Acts 20:20 From house to house........ *Smiles of Joy* [comments] => 8 [counter] => 194 [topic] => 21 [informant] => lovingcritters [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
