The Question

What if Mary Magdalyn
had fallen say, for John?
So much she felt within her heart
that she could not go on.

Who would have waited at the tomb
in agonizing pain,
who would the Lord have then sent forth
His 'Good News' to proclaim.

The first of many that were sent
and her the first female.
If her heart was divided would
her ministry derail?

Difficult this task of living
here in this world below
to touch this realm and not be touched
a hardship that I know.

I throw this question up to You
Who dwells beyond the sky,
'If I've been touched is it too late?'
I wait for Your reply.
