As you got up this morning
I watched you and hope you would talk to me
Even if it was just a few words
Asking my opinion or thanking me for something good that happened in your life yesterday
But I noticed you were too busy
Trying to find the right outfit to put on and wear to work
I waited.
When you ran around the house getting ready
I knew there would be a few minutes to stop and say hello
But you were too busy
At one point you had to wait fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit in a chair
Then I saw you sprang to your feet
I thought you wanted to talk to me but you ran to the phone
And called a friend to get the latest gossip
I watched as you went to work and I waited patiently all day long
With all your activities I guess you were too busy to say anything to me
I noticed that before lunch you looked around
Maybe you felt embarrassed to talk to me
That is why you didn’t bow your head
You glanced three for four tables over
And you noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly before they ate
But you didn’t, That’s Okay.
There is still more time left, and I hope that you talk to me yet
You went home and it seems as if you had lots of things to do
After a few of them were done you turned on the TV
I didn’t know if you like TV or not
Just about anything goes there and spend a lot of time each day in front of it
Not thinking about anything – just enjoying the show
I waited patiently again as you watched the TV
And ate your meal but again you didn’t talk to me
Bedtime I guess you felt too tired.
After you said goodnight to your family, you plopped on to bed and feel asleep in no time
That’s okay because you may not realize that I am always there for you
I’ve got patience more than you will ever know
I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well
I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod,
Prayer, or thought, or thankful part of your heart
It is hard to have one-sided conversation
Well, you are getting up again and once again I will wait with nothing but love
For you hoping that today you will give me sometime.
Have a nice day!
Your friend,
JESUS
