I was hungry...
Wednesday, July 23, 2003 at 5:55PM This post is from the defunct blog "Dying Church"
From John Stott's Issues Facing Christians Today - (Courtesy Signposts)I was hungry ... and you formed a humanities group to discuss my hunger. I was imprisoned, ... and you crept off quietly to your chapel and prayed for my release. I was naked, ... and in your mind you debated the morality of my appearance. I was sick, ... and you knelt and thanked God for your health. I was homeless, ... and you preached to me of the spiritual shelter of the love of God. I was lonely ... and you left me alone to pray for me. You seem so holy, so close to God ... but I am still very hungry - and lonely - and cold.

I have sinned. I have sinned against God and man. Father God, do not let the blood of your precious son be wasted. Cover your children. Forgive us, Lord, but do not just forgive us, turn us. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
