That is way I felt when they started locking my church's doors. Then I found I can get on my knees anywhere and HE will be there. Your words say it so well. as ever Gail

God is everywhere. A church's locked door need not keep you from Him. Your poem touched me.

I have not been a believer for a very long time, because HE had never seemed available when I did believe I needed him. The only forgiveness you need is that which you give yourself. If you learned from your mistake, you have earned that forgiveness. If you truly believe in him, then you must also believe that there is no special building needed for him to see your need. This is a very thought provoking piece and you have done it exceptionally well. Thank you
