Oh Lord...

Why does the sun seem to fade?
Why does the world seem to grow silent?
Where have the noises of the world gone?
And why, why has silence seemed to weigh so heavily on my shoulders?

Whencefrom comes the dew of paradise,
The drops that drench my coat?
That seem to fill my back with burdens,
And remind me of the weak one I am?

When order and chaos meet,
And disorder gains the upper hand,
The question I ask myself...
Is why in the world does rain now make me think of this?


Oh Lord, I am stressed...
I must say I miss snow...
I miss the simple reminder of Your love...

...

You know I don't want to be testing You...
But please Lord, can You please spare me a pat on my back?
A touch from You...
It's all I need to move on...

I thank You Lord for all I have,
And I thank You for what I will...

You know I love You,
And I thank You because You will speak to me in the next couple of minutes...
Thanks Abba!


Your son whom You love.

Sorry...

I lashed out again...

It's upsetting, and I even BEGIN to speak of unsettling, when you seriously put your mind onto work, and practically spend two whole days slaving yourself to about 300 pieces of paper in the basement of a library (where it's most quiet), trying to memorize every single detail, and then going into an exam only to notice that you have no idea what the professor's trying to get at...

The frustration...

The anger...

The bars, filled with the sound of people getting drunk...
Only to notice that the reason it's full...
Is the same reason i'm slightly disturbed...


...


But I will look up to the hills...

Psalm 121

1 I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.



AMEN

The Wheel

Ahhh... Life...

You walk around and one day you see a wheel spinning...
And then you look around and because there's your pals around,
You say "Nah, not interested! In fact, I really hate it!"...
But the wheel never leaves your mind...
And one day you come back and no one's around,
Then curiosity gets the better of you and you go
"Hey, I wonder how it's like being on the wheel?"
And so you walk to it, try to climb it, and get squashed...

So you develop a phobia of that insolent little wheel
And it occurs to you that you DON'T REALLY NEED that wheel
Then people tell you that you've gotta take a chance if you're ever gonna master the wheel...
That the only way you could control the wheel is by climbing on it...
And you see your friends, all with their own wheels...
And...
And then curiosity gets the better of you and you go
"Hey, I wonder how it's like being on the wheel?"
And so you walk to it, try to climb it, and get squashed...

And the process repeats itself a couple of times...
But honestly, you DON'T need that wheel...
But you still wanna try it...

And the wheel keeps spinning...
And while some are happy being on a wheel,
Some aren't, and keep wanting to change wheels
Whilst others, find themselves completely satisfied without a wheel...
But the circle continues...
And life goes on =)

And the wheel? It keeps spinning =D

Psalm 23

The Lord IS my shepherd, I shall not WANT
He makes me LIE DOWN in green pastures,
He LEADS me beside STILL waters,
He RESTORES my soul...
He LEADS me in paths of RIGHTEOUSNESS
for HIS name's sake
Even though I WALK through the valley of the SHADOW of DEATH
I will FEAR no EVIL
for You ARE with me
Your ROD and Your STAFF, they COMFORT me
You PREPARE a table for me IN THE PRESENCE of my ENEMIES
You ANOINT my head with oil
My cup OVERFLOWS
Surely, GOODNESS and MERCY with FOLLOW me ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE,
And I will DWELL in the PRESENCE of my Lord, FOREVER!


It's... Overwhelming...

God
Is
Awesome!
