Is this kind of writing good or bad?

Post by _mattrose » Sat Apr 09, 2005 4:46 pm

What do you think of the short letter below? Does this type of creative writing just stir up feelings of guilt that are not genuine or necessary OR does it cause us to stop and think about what (or in this case WHOM) we are not leaving room for? Be honest. Does it condemn or cause positive reflection?

I Need A New Job
I am currently unemployed. Let me know if you hear of any openings.

I have plenty of experience...

I used to convict people of sin, but they stopped believing sin exists. I used to counsel the hurting, but now they have pop-psychology and self-help books. I used to sanctify people, but now they don't know what that means. I used to inhabit praises, but now they're too busy following the words on a screen. I used to pray with people on Wednesday nights, but they decided to stop doing those services. I used to meet needs, but they have programs to do that now. I used to give pastor's a vision for their community, but now they just steal leftover vision from super-pastors. I used to be on the move, but they fell in love with the movements instead of with Me. I used to be Someone, but now I'm just an it.

Give me a Call,
Holy Spirit
