Walking among the mundane and the ordinary. Slipping between the cracks of good-day and goodbye. Neatly tucked beneath a smile or a wave. Light glistening off the unseen. In the form of a helping hand or a warm embrace. When ways wind & bend and shadows lengthen. Many will miss the claim of the Father…
Church, known by society As a building built With barricades of Brickwalls busted up to The brink, at times Reflecting the tower of Babel All the while the church halls Echo in fables.

However, there are times where it seems never-ending, especially when people your age and younger are achieving milestones like buying a house together, getting married and having children. It sometimes feels like I’ve been waiting at…
