Seraphim's Struggles on the Way

i saw you today

when I was walking with my wife and kid, our two dogs.

i saw you in your suit and tie and suv, bible on the dash

i saw you look at us

i saw you judge us

i saw you feel better about yourself that you were on your way to a building

we were on our way to the park

i saw you

hell

i was you

carrying the bible everywhere, proudly displayed.

but not living it

judging your righteousness by how much you agreed with me

not by how much you looked like jesus

i saw you today

and i remembered

church is not a building

worship is not confined to sunday morning

fellowship is more than stand and greet your neighbor

i saw you today

and i prayed for you and for me

and took my dogs

and walked and prayed and worshipped God

i saw you

u saw me

God saw us both.
