IF JESUS COMES TO YOUR HOUSE....


If Jesus comes to your house
To spend some time with you,
If He comes unexpected,
I wonder what you'd do.
Oh, I know you'd give your nicest room
To such an honored guest

And all the food you'd give to Him
Would be the very best.
And you would keep assuring Him

You're glad to have Him there--
That serving Him in your home
Is joy beyond compare.


But when you saw Him coming,

Would you meet Him at the door
With arms outstretched in welcome
To your heavenly visitor?
Or would you have to change your clothes

Before you let Him in
Or hide some magazines
And put the Bible where they'd been 
Would you hide your worldly music

and put some hymn books out?
Could you let Jesus walk right
in, or would you rush about?


And I wonder - if the Saviour

spent a day or two with you,
Would you go right on doing, the
things you always do?
Would you go right on saying, the

things you always say?
Or would life for you continue
as it does from day to day?


Would you take Jesus with you

everywhere you go?
Or would you maybe change your

plans for just a day or so?
Would you be glad to have Him

meet your closest friends?
Or would you hope they stay away,
until His visit ends?
Would you be glad to have Him

stay forever on and on?
Or would you sigh with great
relief when He at last was gone?


It might be interesting to know,

the things that you would do,
If Jesus came in person, to spend
some time with you


This piece of rhyming words, put together beautifully , challenged my faith and my way of living 'in Christ'.
Do I believe in Christ ? Yes. Do I accept Him as my Lord and Saviour? Yes!.But then, do I live everyday in Christ? ummm, mostly :/. 
I feel that I am a 'good' christian but honestly i am not sure if my 'good' is His 'good' too! 
 Manytimes the way i live gets other peoples' approval but will Jesus give His approval ? 
It is true that He is making a place for me up there ( all thanks to HIS Grace!)..but what if He comes to my place ,today?
