This is where you will come to meet with Me. <br />I am everywhere, but if you come <br />I will be waiting to meet you here. <br /> <br />You see only the surface of the people surrounding you. <br />They may have clear, smiling faces, but I know <br />what is lying buried in their hearts <br /> <br />Listen for My voice in the midst of all the words, <br />Concentrate on Me. I will hear your tiniest whispered prayer <br />I know the love in your heart when you sing to Me. <br /> <br />I don't care what you look like, or what you're wearing <br />or what kind of car you drive. <br />I have all the time in the world to care for you in the stillness. <br /> <br />Don't concern yourself with who knows who and who is busy talking to who. <br />I am here for you and have brought you here for My purposes. <br />They may smile and shake your hand for a moment <br />But I want to take your hands and hold you to Me for a lifetime. <br /> <br />Don't go away with the pain still inside you <br />I want to meet with you, <br />and minister to you and <br />heal your wounded heart. <br />Don't go away until I <br />go away with You. <br /> <br />See the sign outside? They made <br />a mess of it with that complicated name, <br />when all it really needs to say is <br />God's church, welcome. <br />My church, you and me, <br />Come in.<br /><br />Josephine Collett<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/church-service/
