I Wonder

Me: I have something to share.

Prodigal: Go ahead!

This is from Ruth Harms Calkin

You know, Lord, how I serve You

With great emotional fervor

In the limelight.

You know how eagerly I speak for You

At the women’s club.

You know how I effervesce when I promote

A fellowship group.

You know my genuine enthusiam

At a Bible study.

But how would I react, I wonder

If You pointed to a basin of water

And asked me to wash the calloused feet

Of a bent and wrinkled old woman

Day after day

Month after month

In a room where nobody saw

And nobody knew.

God looked down from heaven upon the children of men,
to see if there were any that did understand,
that did seek God. Psalm 53:2 (KJV)

Jennifer Van Allen
