would we say that to Jesus – v2

we read that we may entertain angels
in the strangers before us
that God comes unaware, like a thief in the night;
but do we ever think about that
before we speak a word of judgment

maybe we all need a five-second delay
before we speak a word
a filter, a pause button
to ponder His teaching
the lesson for the sheep

would we say that to Jesus
if He was standing before us
How do we know, from reading this scripture;
maybe we should ask,
are we sure that His isn’t?
