Sixth Thursday in Lent

“Since, then, we have such a hope, we act with great boldness,” 2 Corinthians 3:12

the
always-running-for-office
try to convince us
that they are our only hope,
but you take the little child
who is making sandwiches
for the homeless and say,
‘notice her, not them.’

some are still afraid
to venture out and in to
stores, restaurants, and such,
and instead of trying to
guilt them into joining them,
may we get instahope
to place a delivery
in front of their door.
