Could It Be Jesus?

31 "But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 "All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; 33 and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left.

34 "Then the King will say to those on His right, 'Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 'For I was hungry, and you gave Mesomething to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.' 37 "Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38 'And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39 'When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' 40 "The King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.'
41 "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.' 44 "Then they themselves also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?' 45 "Then He will answer them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' 46 "These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

Lately I have been studying this verse. I love these verses because they remind us how we need to care about the people that are less fortunate than us. There is a song by Monk and Niegal that relates a lot to this verse. It's called "21st Time". Here are some of the words:

Nowhere to live nowhere fall

He used to have money but he's wasted it all

His face is photgraph burend in my mind

But I pretend not to see him for the Twenty-First time

He sleeps under stars thats all he can afored

His blanket's an old coat he's had since the war

He stands on the corner of carter and vine

But I pretend not to she him for the Twenty-First time

He may be a drifter he's grown and grey

But what if it's Jesus nd i walk away

I say I'm the body and drink of the wine

But I pretend not to see him for the Twenty-First time

I hope you see now that just like this song and these verses, we need to take care of the homeless and the people less fortante than we are because when we serve these people, we are serving Jesus.
