"Jesus -- Misunderstood And Alone"
Seven Messages For Good Friday Or Lent Based Upon Mark's Passion Of Jesus
Have you ever been terribly alone,
-- even when other people were all around you?
Perhaps you were walking down a street,
totally absorbed in some personal crisis,
and, despite people coming and going beside you
it seemed there was no one to whom you could go
for encouragement and counsel.
The business of decision-making
is often a lonely matter.
Sometimes you lie awake at night,
when everyone else has gone to sleep.
And you go over in your mind
the worries and decisions of the day past
and of the one to come.
