Hey guys! So I am not a huge poetry guy but something not many people know is I have actually had a poem that I wrote published in a book of poetry. When I wrote that poem I wrote it because I heard the words in my head and felt like I supposed to write them down. That being said I felt the same thing happen today and thought I would share it with you all! I hope you enjoy! Let me know what you think!

Where is the church? By: Brendon Worth<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The world calls for justice and where is the church?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Caught in division only making things worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We fight ruthlessly over which party will win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet we\u2019re not concerned at all with our secret sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We fight our petty fights like its the right thing to do<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet when God needs a voice he has to ask \u201cWhere are you?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are so concerned with always being right<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That we have no energy to give to the cause of Christ<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We continue to divide not concerned for our brothers<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though the Word says don\u2019t put yourself before others<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are supposed to be a threat the power of hell<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet we\u2019re to busy gossipping about the member who fell<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only a revival of the church can cure our ills<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For this we must unite and reject the division that kills<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We must repent and call on His name<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If we do this He will send His Spirit and we will not the same<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We must change our hearts and fall on our face<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then will we see an outpouring of His grace<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If we turn to Jesus then will begin a Holy Shaking<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A people ready to host the world for a third Great Awakening<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Awakening brings justice to people near and far<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The second one even helped empty the bars<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When this comes people won\u2019t have to ask where is the church<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We will be a people united that help justice work<\/p>\n\n\n\n
