A little view of hidden treasure
Matthew 18:2-3 New English Translation (NET Bible)
2 He called a child, had him stand among them, 3 and said, “I tell you the truth, unless you turn around and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven!
A small hand reaching out, quickly than to be filled
How long will it last this gift of Holiness?
A happy face for a moment and then just despair
Again disappointment cries, drawing to loneliness
There is enough to go around, but what is this substance
Philosophy blows empty words to cover "whited" walls
Open hearts upon their knees, bowing now in trance
Before the minds of others who don’t know after all?
Circles appear in the sand, like footsteps following others
Heads bowed down in a store searching for something new
Afraid to touch the ordinary person who has all the answers
I believe in unconditional love set aside for the chosen few
Jan Wienen
