Haiku of the
disappointing
Sinners in the church!
How could it be otherwise?
Flawed humanity.
Work through your issues;
quietly if possible.
Maintain fellowship.
Try to practise grace,
forgiving one another.
Sort things out with love.
Rules are enacted
to limit bad behaviour;
love doesn’t need rules.
Accept correction
from your sisters and brothers
as a caring gift.
Agree together
on your Father’s purposes;
advance God’s kingdom.
Where two, three gather
in my name, to seek my will,
I am with them there.
