Churches falling apart
In this breaking many hearts
Judging outside the four walls
Not within that keeps one at stall
We don't need a open door on every corner
But more open within through the transformer
This could be a good thing
For ones to come together and sing
To put Christ first in our life
Not division causing misery and strife
Could we come together with love
The world has enough who shove
To hear one talk of Christ as past 
Has not reached out to grasp
We need to see the foolishness of many teaching
God's spirit through Christ is the one to be preaching
To think God how did ones before us make such mess
In your word is the only true peace and rest
The hidden mystery of treasures within
That one can tell the world of your win
We need to have a new awakening
To many lost hearts are breaking

I don't agree with the churches, however, when you said " We don't need a open door on every corner But more open within through the transformer" yes, yes, yes. We must go within, be purge, purify, and cleanse with the Eternal Fire, coming out with a renewed mind.

I just envision people coming together in harmony and unity my friend, a friend of mine went on a mission trip to Honduras and could not believe they all walk for miles to come together to hear the word, nothing against Churches , if we get mankind out of the way and walk in His word dwelling within there would be no need for so much separation in United States, May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, comfort and joy in abundance: ). We are writing to people around the world so it's different churches everywhere, but one should focus on themselves being the church God's spirit wants to reign in

Hi Stephan, Amen, I agree with your heartfelt write. “ We don't need a open door on every corner, But more open within through the transformer” were some soul-stirring lines. Like always good ink. I admire your faith and conviction. Have a great day-Alexis

All glory to God, myself was going against God, from learning,from worldly ways, but one day He revealed to me the deception of mankind I had fallen into, thank God He shall crucify the old self , to give out peace and rest of the soul : ). May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: ).

A lovely write. Many years ago, some churches were open 24/7. Now locked and only open for service. Have a blessed day...............
