What could I do for you if I pray and walk away, touching your hands but not your heart?
You have a need that I can meet but I don’t. You are my neighbor but I don’t know you.
What could I do for you if I withhold a warm embrace. Do not give you the time of day.
Stare blankly past your unspoken cry for help.
What could I do for you if I don’t answer when you call? Draw the shades and lock the doors. Remain behind my walls.
What could I do for you if I have nothing left to give? My energy is spent. I am lost in my own world. I can not see outside myself.
What could I do for you if I let God reign in me? Say yes instead of no. Soften my hard heart.
What could I do for you if I welcome His embrace? Give Him the time of day. Do not walk away from what He has done for me.
What could I do for you?
What do you need?
