In Plain Sight

John 13:35 By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

In Plain Sight

You see me across the street
And carry on driving immersed in your next thought.
Waiting for the signal to turn green so you can put me off.

You see me on the sidewalk
As you rush to get your kid from school
I am one more number in your child’s math book.

You see me outside the coffee shop
As you come on your office break
It is easy to ignore me as you take the steps.

I have been waiting on every street corner for you
Disheveled, dirty, stinking and feeling blue
I know you have been waiting for me too.

But I am not found in big building on a Sunday morn
Nor in a gathering of a so called revival dawn
Not in any of those places am I found.

I am here in plain sight if you will only see
You will encounter me in everyday life that be
My revival starts in your heart as you reach out to me.

By this shall all men know that you are my disciples
That you love one another
I am waiting for you to love me,
I am in plain sight don’t you see?
