Misrepresentation
Nov3 by justhappeneduponthis
They come here by habit
And smile the right way
And pause as they honour
The Lord’s Sabbath Day.
Yes, pause, from a schedule
That seems quite removed
From meekness and mercy
The things that He loved.
And quick, shake the hand
And guide to a seat
As music is starting
A smart lively beat.
With words full of victory
And treasures to win.
No mention of reverence
Of testing, of sin.
Announcements to follow
Of programs galore.
It seems every interest
Has something in store.
And plates passed around
To fatten the till
While building plans beckon
The thirsty thirst still.
And finally a message
Of humour and art
And life illustration
But where is God’s heart?
They’ve missed it
In all the mechanics and rush
The Blood of the Lamb
The Spirit’s love push.
Note: Regrettably, there are too many churches in this rut. No prayer. No sincere Bible reading. No testimony. No expectant hush. No heartfelt charity. No physical touch. Should Jesus get the blame?
