If Jesus Knocked

If Jesus knocked at your door,
 would you gladly let Him in?
Would you let Him in every room,
 despite the clutter within?

Would you show Him the study-
 the volumes of books you've read?
Or would you rather take the Lord
 to some other room instead?

Would He like your living room,
 your kitchen and bedroom too?
Could He have the remote control
 and decide what shows you view?

Would you start your day with Him
 in reading His word and prayer?
Or would you rush off every morn
 as if Jesus wasn't there?

If He came to live with you
 would you offer your best?
Would the Lord feel at home within
 or would He feel like a guest?

Forgive me Lord

Forgive me Lord for sins long past, and those for which I haven't asked. Forgive me when I neglect to pray; instead, desiring my own way...
