We Once Believed That Our Love Should Be Restricted To The Church Alone by paxonel(m): 7:03am On Jul 02, 2018 |
Have you ever find yourself in a situation where nothing else matters but the church you attend? We were ready to give up anything in the course of promoting our denomination over others. The moment anyone identity him or herself as member of our church we shout, oh! Glory. There was so much love, we do almost everything together, sharing with one another, not letting the poor among us feel the impact of their situation. And we did so many great things on stage ranging from classical choreography, drama, beautiful songs. And most importantly we went for evangelism together everyone participating ernestly, distributing tracts and sharing the love of christ to others. But in all these, trust me, we were never fulfilled. The moment church closes and i arive my neighbourhood seeing so many children of my age in agony, poverty, frustration many of which never had the opportunity to enjoy what I was enjoying at home, in church and in school, I then knew that something is terribly wrong with this system of things. Then i begin to ask myself this question, how is it possible to replicate this so much love i feel in the church such that it can be extended to these children in the society? The first time i visited the UK was after my secondary school. Over there i noticed that few people of my age go to church. All the young talents and ideas were never displayed on church stages, church was much more boring and within a short duration we were already at home. But at home, everyone were mindful of their business. We hardly see our neighbours children outside, talkess of knowing whether they are poor or agonized frustrated people or they are extremely rich. Everything was much more balanced and for a long time i never felt bad of seeing poor people around. It then occured to me that an organized system is working here. Now, the question is, since we have so much love in our churches and our society does not feel a dime of the impact , i know we are all quick to blame the government of the day. But we all have responsibility here as youths of this nation. PLEASE GET YOUR PVC! 1 Like |
