Jim Pemberton Poet Rhyme

Am I Your Brother In Christ

Am I Your Brother In Christ?


You say you’re my brother, 
yet pretend I’m not there,
You shut me out of your life…
And you tell others you care.

I don’t quite “fit the mold” of what you
 think a brother should be,
 thinking of yourself, 
and less of me.

I tried to call you, and didn’t answer the phone,
Then tell me I’m not invited to visit your home.

You hypocrite!  You fool!  Who are you kidding?
You’re no representation of Jesus,
 by the way you’re living!

The Bible says love is patient, gentle and kind.
You can’t love just the 99, and leave me behind.

If you continue to “choose” 
whom you’ll love and avoid.
Then true Godly love in your life will never be
enjoyed.

By thinking and dwelling on that
what was done in the past,
You’ll miss out on a freedom in Christ,
 that will always last!
