To the homeless man,
freezing at night,
with cardboard,
to keep him warm,
to the prostitute,
on the street,
who's heart is feeling torn,
and the one corrupt officer,
who wants to be reborn,
Jesus said,
"If you let me in,
I'll give you shelter from the storm".
To the young teenager,
selling drugs,
sitting in the park,
to the man who owns,
the convenient store,
that just robbed,
to the old man,
who was a dad,
and regrets walking,
out the door,
Jesus said,
"If you let me in,
I'll give you shelter from the storm".
To the drugheads tired,
of doing drugs,
and the alcoholics too,
to the daddies who saw,
their daddies,
have women in their house,
coming and going through,
for all of those who are tired,
of doing all of the norm,
Jesus said,
'If you let me in,
I'll give you shelter from the storm".

- Comment from author about the poem: I had actually had copied some of this piece from Bob Dylan's - 'Shelter From The Storm'. With that being said, Jesus does not care what your sin is or who you are. As long as you truly accept him into your heart, you will receive salvation. - And when the scribes and Pharisees saw Him eating with the tax collectors and sinners, they said to His disciples, "How is it that He eats and drinks with sinners and tax collectors?" When Jesus heard it, He said to them, "Those who are well have no need for a physician, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance." - Mark 2:16-17 - ESV - Jesus saves. Persistence is key
