Mark 10:21
Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, “You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, follow me.”
Just one thing
Not very far
But not quite there
Yet Jesus loved him
That is the good news
All those times we don't quite cut it
Still we are loved
All those moments we don't quite measure up
Still we are loved
Because Jesus meets us on the road
He doesn't wait until we reach him
He doesn't hang back to see if we can make it
He comes out to meet us
And he greets us with love
Wouldn't that make you want to find that one thing
And spread the love
Just one thing
But still there is love.
