Like a Child.

Oh God, what have we done to your Church?
compartmentalized
divided by man made philosophy, theology
do we forget that man's Greatest Wisdom can't even touch God's stupidity?

for those of you with God locked in a box-
worshipping at the altar of your Ego,
don't you know that God cannot be limited?
he is bigger than you or me
she is bigger than you or me
divinity cannot be defined
the greatest Mystery of the universe cannot be fully comprehended-
our minds cannot grasp Him,
if they could, She would not be God.

i am grieved.
how did the church become so ridden with politics and protocol? like the Pharisees we are making up ridiculous rules that God never imposed upon us-
i want to stand up and shout
like the prophets of old,

wake up!
unify!
reject the lies of division,
throw out all that does not reflect
the beautiful heart
of Christ!
flee pride!
unify!

like a child, like a child, like a child-
full of wonder, awe
so close to joy
and sorrow
living in the moment, purely and simply-
children
have no concept of time
they do not worry about tomorrow or the next time they will eat-
they trust completely that it will be provided
that they will be taken care of.
children
do not reject other children
because of outward perception
they love wholeheartedly
wonder and awe
laughter abounding

jesus rejoiced in children, gave them his time
with no thought
of the next thing he needed to get to...
can you see the heart of God??

Come like a child,
come like a child to Me.
