A Poem Late At Night

Oh how thoughts invade sleep,
Like incandescent bulbs in the dark.
Disturbing me from mine slumber,
Like a rude awakening,
A subconscious cold bath,
Springs me from any rest.
Trials pushing every level.
I feel like things are crashing all around
Like i'm losing control and i'm all alone.
It's draining me



All these days
They are the same
I need a change, to rearrange
Move around, feel the beat again
I'm sick of the same old, same old
I need to get off this leash,
A sweet release, and maybe
At least, run with the bulls,
For a little while

A Recent Testimony

So, today I was having a conversation with a young man from the youth group I volunteer at.  It began the usual way with, "Hey, what's up?" and so on.  Soon it turned to me asking what he was up to, and his response of, listenin to some tunes, about to grab my bible and do some reading.  So I proceeded to ask, which book of the Bible?  He said about to start reading in Isaiah, I assumed he meant Isaiah 1.  In fact, he had worked through Isaiah and was reading the last chapter, 65.  At this point he will be beginning on Jeremiah.  What blows my mind even further, this young man, isn't even 16 years old.
The fact of getting to see God work in his life, defeating drugs, depression, just leaves me in awe.  This just proves, that God's word does not come back void. I felt I should just share this little testimony, and I've always shared a link to a personal favourite worship song of both the young man and myself.
