Some accept, in Him delight,
some reject His truth, His light,
some fall – down, away, or back,
unaware of what they’ll lack.
Some are lifted up, made wise,
to new lives by grace arise.
Jesus Christ – the Cornerstone,
but a tripping stone for some.
Time divided by his advent –
BC, AD – some resent.
Some feel sad they must reject –
ponder, and return – accept!

“a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in Him will never be ashamed … a stone that causes men to stumble and a rock that makes them fall.” 1 Peter 2:6,8
