Time to Still

There's a time for change

A time for complacency

for not for the routine

would we not hunger for

the change

stirring of the embers

I stand still...

In my own skin

can I peer out

of the black ash

of what was

holding me down

mainitaining my frown

I never know what

change You will bring

where the fire will stir

All I know is You

You will enlighten the way

I stand still...

"He restoreth my soul"..

He my calm makes whole..

"He knows what I have need of before I ask"..

how can I bask

in the glow of His Hol'

I stand still...

Pondering in amazement

the Love that knows no limits

that cannot be held

My thoughts, my wishes, my wonders

were more than just little lip flutters

You took to Heart

the matter for which I laked tears

trying to stay awake to hide the pain

behind the fake..

Make no mistake..

I stand still..

I stand still..

I STAND STILL!

Relevant Witness

IS it relevant or relative?

To ponder
To wonder on those things of a higher nature..
A higher power..

Relevant to you
To God or
To me?

We are all connected

U see

To contemplate
To imaginate
All the things
I should do

All the things
I fall short of

Must not let go
Of the ole’ heave ho
The workin’ man’s motto
Is a good intro

To keep on the ole
Straight n’ narrow

Keep on walking
Keep on praying

To God keep on relatin’
Not always easy you see

A God-seeker to be
Hard-work
To be kneelin’
To be stillin’

On God to be yieldin’

Relative to you
Relevant to me

Is my walk with God
Cannot stop
The impact of it all

When I fall
When I stray

Your eyes can pierce
And remind me of how fierce
I must remain

Determination

From a Higher plain
I cannot

Separate from you
Or Him be

B/c we are all entwined

In His Love oh, so sublime

You touch me
I touch you
You see me
I see you

The legacy of a God-fearing soul
Must we make
Must we mold

So others can
Without shame
w/out remiss
Our story unfold
　
We are all relevant you see,

To God
To you
To me.

To A New Year and New Beginnings

This year will hold alot of changes for me and new challenges. I posted this pic to remind me as I face these new challenges to:

1. Keep my chin up and my face towards the Son

2. To grow inside and out

3. and to continue to surround myself with beautiful people and beautiful things

Those are 3 of my goals for 2009.
