The question has been asked by many over the years and, what with all the 25 lists going around Facebook, I figured that they would make a perfect medium for this question. I know there are only 18, but that’s not the point…
1 ) Would we be able to hear Him past our cellphones?
2 ) Would we be able to see Him past our television and computer screens?
3 ) Would we be able to taste Him past all our processed foods?
4 ) Would we have time for Him in our busy schedules?
5 ) Would we be able to choose His bread over our Big Mac?
6 ) Would we choose His Word over our tabloid papers?
7 ) Would we choose His stories over our evening news?
8 ) Would we be able to accept his warm embrace in our distanced world?
9 ) Would He be welcome in our place of worship?
10 ) Would He be welcome in our home?
11 ) Would we pass Him by on the street?
12 ) Would we stop to listen to His Message?
13 ) Would we recognize Him if He came today?
14 ) Would we be able to hear His call above the noise?
15 ) Would He be happy of our job so far?
16 ) Are we ready?
17 ) Are we willing?
18 ) Are we able?
I don’t know…do you?
