Haiku of welcome
Wasn’t one of us,
casting out in Jesus’ name;
we told him to stop.
Complained to Jesus.
No probs. He’s not against us,
must be on our side!
When deeds of power
are done in my name, they bear
witness to my words.
The great welcomer;
Jesus looks a what we do,
not at our Tee-shirt.
When people bless you
because you carry my name,
they too, will be blessed.
Don’t make barriers
that cause the weak to stumble;
work to welcome them.
Let nothing stop you
from living the kingdom life.
It is ev’rything.
The kingdom’s good salt
is in you. Share peace and salt
with everyone.
