Will You Spend Time With Me

Will You Spend Time With Me???

I asked if you’d spend some time with me.
But you just seemed to forget about me.

I seen you in church and shook your hand.
But when I wanted to talk, you just “ran.”

I had some heartfelt issues and needed prayer.
I couldn’t find you!  You weren’t there!

I thought you’re my brother…  Am I mistaken?
I feel like I’ve been left alone and forsaken.

What happened to the verse; “love one another?”
Shouldn’t we be there for our sister and brother?

I’m sorry to disappoint you.  I won’t be back here.
It seems like I can’t find a friend around here.

I’ll spend my Sundays staying at my home.
I’ll be content with just being alone.

I’m going to talk to Jesus in heartfelt prayer.
I heard he’s someone who listens and cares.

I hope that God’s spirit will daily remind you.
There’s hurting people like me all around you.

I hope that you’ll take the time and pray.
And reach out to a lost soul…    TODAY!
