End of the year is empty church season

* Luís Alberto Alves

Every end and beginning of the year, the churches are empty. People take vacation from worship services. They leave prayers in the background and the concern is only to consume, even what they do not need. They're hallucinating. He walks the lost streets, like cockroaches after receiving a burst of poison.

Not even the most elaborate sermon is capable of making these people stay in worship. I would say that the pastor and the workers enter into solitude. The banks, with few members, symbolize the disengagement towards Jesus Christ.

Quickly forget the words of the Lord when he announced that our dwelling not here in this world, but in Heaven. But the blind of faith can not understand the depth of this message. For them the ideal is to buy in bulk.

They spend the end of the year eating a lot, just like the bear on the eve of hibernating. All to get into the sleep of not needing the support of God. For some this may be the last year of their lives or even this day, this week and they remain empty-handed, with nothing to present to God.
