Sunday Morning Divisions
Are you in sanctuary or synagogue or temple or church today?
God Bless You!
In my quiet time this morning, Carol Mackey reflected on 1 Cor. 1:10 in which Paul wrote to the people of Corinth, “Now I plead with you… that you speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind…”
Carol wrote in Guideposts’ Mornings with Jesus, “Sunday morning at eleven o’clock is the most segregated hour of the week.”
I was prompted in thinking about that statement to create this Haiku x4:
Sunday Mornings
Segregation thrives
most in Sunday morning pews.
Where’s our unity?
Race and culture,
Ideology and thoughts
Pull worship apart.
It must sadden God;
It must grieve Jesus’ heart
To see divisions.
Instead of focus
On our obvious fractures,
Focus on One God!
.
Many people are unaware that the first five books of the Bible are the Jewish Torah.
Everything on earth is created by our One God.
On that we who worship the One God can agree, right?
As we worship God,
how can we use that worship time
as a time of
UNITY
and not
DIVISION?
