day 245


day 245

They answered him, ‘Abraham is our father.’ Jesus said to them, ‘If you were Abraham’s children, you would be doing what Abraham did,’” John 8:39 

if Jesus is our brother
as we so glibly proclaim,
we would be doing what
he did –
loving our enemies,
reaching out to the forgotten,
welcoming the outcasts,
offering healing to those around us,
but obviously,
he is not who we
keep saying he is
to us
