Passion and Brokenness

Standing above a worship center full of people worshipping the One True God…
I wonder how many of these people are masking their own reality,
Denying the hurt and pain, trying to hide their desperation
They are using faith as a mask…if the Church knew would they be rejected
And even if they were accepted, would the church invest their time or love into these hurting people…would we see them as worth it…
 
One abrupt ending of a life…one broken heart expressing their pain
Shouldn’t this tragedy cause a change;
Bring forth the passion of Christ running through our veins
Was that life not worth the death of Christ?
All this pain brings forth the question of this place…of the Church
Are we the body of Christ as He intended?
Have we been blinded by our own selfishness?

The battle has been raging in my head for years
Relating to these broken lives…
Because I was masking my own reality
Hiding in a crowd of worshippers ,
Afraid to admit because of rejection…
Choosing daily between death or life
 
Is the love of Christ really real?
Is His sacrifice for those lives…
The lives so broken they’re debating suicide…
The TRUTH is CHRIST died to save
His love runs deeper than this pain…
 
The church…His Body, we have to make a change!
Let his passion run through our veins
And we are bound as followers of Christ to truly care
To reach out and walk alongside each other amidst the fight we have in this life!
