Poem based on Luke 14:1-14

Once I view the world

with a what can I get out of it

            attitude

Jesus looks with pity

            on my choice

Once we view one of the least of these

            my brothers and sisters

as the least

we say more about ourselves

and our view of God

            than we do of them

humble thyself

in the site of the Lord

humble thyself

and you will be raised up

to life

            love

                        God

humble thyself

and seek only to be

a child of God
