THE INVISIBLE PEOPLE

We see them but we don’t–the invisible people.

They serve our food. They clean public restrooms. They drive our taxis. They sell us popcorn at the theater. They ask if we want fries with our hamburger.

We see them but we don’t–the invisible people.

At one point in time we were all one of them because we were too young. We will all be one of them again when we are too old. We were one of them when we did menial tasks for low wages.

We see them but we don’t–the invisible people.

Some try to build up their own miserable self-image by being rude to them. 

But Jesus saw them. And heard them. And loved them. And taught them. And lived with them. And healed them. And brought them back from the dead. And died for them.

Thank you for that selfless act of love, Dear Jesus. Thank you for seeing and saving the invisible people. Thank you for teaching us that wonderful lesson. Forgive us for the times when we did not see them.

  1. Bill, this is pure poetry and a work of faith. Thank you. Also, I’ve found that when these “invisible people” are rude themselves, it is often an act of frustration. God bless.
