Jesus Counts Hairs

The Good Book states that Jesus knows the number of hairs on your head,
And I assume He also knows the color be it blonde, purple or red.

I would also presume that His calculations are somewhat lessened over all,
Considering those members of His flock who are as bald as a bowling ball!

(Matthew 10:30 & Luke 12:7)

G'day Bob … it appears that it was luck that Jesus chose to be a carpenter and not a barber. All the blokes either had long hair or no hair, so he wouldn't have been able to afford to spread the word of God - thanks Bob - Lindsay

Hi Bob, I suppose He knows every thing about us and pulls out his file when we meet Him and tells us he knows what hubby and I were doing every night at 10.00 p.m! LOL. Great poem Bob, Blessings, Jennifer

I'm sure that is true, Anne Lise, and He no doubt is disappointed in many things we do! Good to hear from you. Hope Springs is making its entrance in Norway in style! Bob
