Jesus on a Unicycle

We do not see Jesus on a float, in the big Thanksgiving Day parade. Nor in a shopping mall handing out, cheap Toys that child laborers have made. You don’t see giant Jesus blow ups, bobbing around out on people’s lawn. He’s not parked in his sleigh upon the roof, with a hundred bright flashing lights on. They don’t sell you Jesus door knockers, napkin holders or pepper shakers. He does not drink Coke with polar bears, or pose with kids for picture takers. Was pretty easy to figure out, why kids like Santa more than Jesus. Because his advertisement firm has learned, instant satisfaction will please us. What four-year old kid will want to wait, ‘til he dies to go to paradise. They just want to open their present, and eating cookies for breakfast might be nice. If Jesus wants to be a big hit, he will need to go on to TV. Ride a unicycle down Main street, while shouting out Ho! Ho! Ho! with glee.
