If this is not a place where tears are understood, Then where shall I go to cry? And if this is not a place where my spirit can take wings, Then where shall I go to fly? I don't need another place for trying to impress you With just how good and virtuous I am. I don't need another place for always being on top of things; Everybody knows that it's a sham. I don't need another place for always wearing smiles, Even when it's not the way I feel. I don't need another place to mouth the same old platitudes; Everybody knows that it's not real. So if this is not a place where my questions can be asked, Then where shall I go to seek? And if this is not a place where my heart cry can be heard, Where, tell me where, shall I go to speak? So if this is not a place where tears are understood, Where shall I go, where shall I go to fly? -- Ken Medema

ReplyDeleteBy the way, do you have a spare 'badge' I could borrow. I was forced out of MY church because I did not have the 'proper' badge.

ReplyDeleteWhat do you do when someone is asked to leave you church because of not having right badge?
How sad it is for anyone to be asked to leave a Church.
ReplyDeleteYou don't have to be asked to leave in order to know you are not wanted!
