The Least of These

brother, can you spare a dime

By Randy BakerPublished 4 months ago 1 min read

"Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.'" - Matthew 25:45

*

Being invisible is as lonely as it sounds.

Every day, I sit here

with my cardboard sign

and outstretched hand.

Every day, I sit here

waiting.

Waiting for someone to see Christ in me.

Waiting for someone to see me at all.
