I saw Jesus this morning

I saw Jesus Today I saw Jesus this morning… in shredded clothes, shivering, begging and all he wanted was just to eat! I saw Jesus this morning, on the street… under the scotching sun. He had no shelter on His head. I saw Jesus today In my neighbor’s house… Frail… sickly… He has no money for hospital. I saw Jesus today In the church… He could not pay his school fees. I saw Jesus today Yet still at the church He has nothing to feed His children as He walked home , head bow and dejected. I saw Him… I always see Him . Oh yes, I saw him, yet again in my child’s school, with a torn uniform and a worn out sandals! I saw Him, I always see Him. But a number of times, I see him, but I did not know Him. Yet oftentimes I see Him, I did not discern Him. Many atimes, I encountered Him, but I did not have an encounter with Him. Lord can you have mercy on me?
