So Many Sundays To Come

I 
I am
So embarrassed 
To put this out here
Shame on me shame on me
X a zillion times
I always say there are so
Many Sundays to come
So I've been walking around
Like a chemically injected chicken 
Looking fat but with nothing inside

I have not been going to church for a few years. For some reason I was feeling disconnected and it gave me pause. Unlike you I have not been feeling guilty. Maybe I should but instead I am listening for God's voice and he is revealing Himself in the most interesting places.

I think its coz I've always gone and i also grew up in a strict Christian household where we had too. There was no choice. And I haven't lately and that's why I feel guilty. But I think I can try different ways of spending time with God like you do. Thank you Richard.
