Nigerians, The Church People!

Every Sunday I see my people throng to their different churches,
with their attires, headgears and hats giving colours a peacock would be envious of.
They fill the pews as usual,
singing, dancing, clapping, listening and nodding,
their minds gone numb in this weekly ritual.
Afterwards they throng back to their homes.
They return to their normal lives,
some trying to be holy, some trying to survive;
never changing anything where they are.
Things even go worse as they watch.
The corruption is still in the system of governance,
examination malpractice in the exam halls,
the wrong values still in vogue.
They are ignorant!
Unaware of who they really are and what they should be doing:
Changing lives, communities and nations
Impact minded for the kingdom of God
Being prototypes of what Christian living should be.
The Church has to go back
and retrace its steps,
because without doing so,
They make abuse Christ's sacrifice.
