Church

CHURCH

Going to church has always been;
That act I was taught helps expunge
some pain-some sin.
To alleviate all burden and leave the pain;
On the churches alter,
Going to Church was just that plain.
Jesus’ divine intellect does not recognize 
excuses of insanity or "you so crazy", as we say;
Jesus dislikes intensely our ignorance, of fact,
the true value his crucifixion paid. 
Jehovah in heaven saw his creations(all of us) as good;
So before you fall asleep remember to pray.

Make no mistakes,  & tell God all of your things.
The things you’ve done wrong, 
all of your selfish (I) eyes' in TEAM.
even the explicitly wicked thoughts 
you had in that dream.
Crying out alone will not tear you apart;
Jesus wants to help, let him know your heart.
And don’t be misinformed in/by what you read;
The book of Matthew instructs us to “bend our knees”.
God wants us to achieve, 
those things which we think we can’t;
He delights in triumph-
It’s his masterpiece, (HE/GOD)so let him paint.

Yeah sometimes you’ll feel faint, have setbacks, 
and they’ll be multiplied by losses.
Couple that with life stresses', kids, your spouses, and bosses.
Overcome!, Maintain!, soften your Heart!, and be Still!.
We cannot change God’s plan for our life,
his will must be fulfilled.
So proudly we’ll carry our daily cross (as Jesus did);
And on the basis our overcoming, God’s true church will 
continually be build.

C-hrist  H-as  U-YOU  R-resisting  C-ertain  H-abits
NOW THAT’S CHURCH!
If I am there...then I cannot be theirs?
