we are like those on the road

We are like those on the road
with Christ walking beside us
but we don’t recognize Christ
seeking Christ alive, risen;
We hear the Easter story
but the words haven’t changed us.

We are like Mary in the garden
seeing the gardener, not the Christ;
We hear the words but
we are not different,
the story has not entered our hearts.
How can we then change the world?
