The church should be a sock

God is a sockI’m not sure what to say about this.

You see… to this guy, God is a sock. I agree with him. Look at his foot. It’s blue from being cold and wet. All this guy needs is a sock. Well, let me rephrase that; I’m sure he needs alot more than that. Probably a hot shower, the same roof over his head, a warm filling meal a couple times a day.

I follow Christ. I follow him with my heart, with my whole heart. That being said, I agree with the guy in the picture. To this man, at this particular point in his life, God is a sock. If he had socks and shoes, but no jacket to keep him warm, God would be a jacket.

That’s where the church comes in. The church (not the building, mind you, the people) should make sure this guy has a sock. Now, I don’t want to hear any of this “who says he didn’t have one and took it off because he’s insane.” In my opinion, you can take that crap elsewhere, cause I’m not interested in hearing it.

I follow Christ, and as part of the body of Christ, the church, it’s my duty… yes, duty, to take care of people; people with real needs. People who need socks.

I should be a sock.
