Hidden Jesus

Like Waldo obscured

Hidden in plain sight

Obvious once found

Knocking outside

 

Deceptions abound

Satan’s playground

Carnal pleasures

Prideful measures

 

Even in church,

Statues and beads

Bounce houses and treats

Music and beats

Rituals observed

Sweets with no meat

 

Tickle the senses

Watered down message

Just leave when you want

No commitment permitted

Personal reference

Professional exchange

 

Wealth and prosperity

Social integrity

Poor and needy

Flag waving

Politically right

 

Business cases

Walking by sight

No faith is needed

Just lean to the right

 

Good works til the end

Make us feel right

Care for the physical

Neglecting the spiritual

 

Misunderstood!

This can’t be good!

Hidden Jesus

I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 1 Cor 2:2 CSB

So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth. For you say, ‘I’m rich; I have become wealthy and need nothing,’ and you don’t realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked. I advise you to buy from me gold refined in the fire so that you may be rich, white clothes so that you may be dressed and your shameful nakedness not be exposed, and ointment to spread on your eyes so that you may see. Revelation 3:16-18 CSB

Who needs to hear this?
