*A Poem that Rhymes*

One of those days where I'm feeling more unworthy than usual
I'm feeling like a failure
I take my bike and head to a field because I'm desperate for that fire.
I choose a hay bale and begin to read Your Word
I see Your glory all around me with the chirping of the birds.
I scream out "Let Your Holy Spirit guide me as I take on this day"
The wide road is easier but Father show me the narrow way.
As I begin to close my eyes and feel the wind hit my face
I hear footsteps in the field and I get a rush of pure grace.
I look over my shoulder and I see Your Son shining
As he gets closer to me I just can't stop smiling.
So many questions start consuming my mind
The only worry of mine was not having enough time.
He simply placed his hand out and showed me his wound
He said "Go ahead. You are not longer doomed. You've been set free."
So I put my thumb in his wrist to get the doubting Thomas out of me.
I asked him why it was so hard to keep a strong, steady faith
The world I live in gives me so many troubles.
All he said was "Take heart, I have overcome the world and pulled you out of the rubble."
I began to cry, I was struck with infinite mercy.
I couldn't understand the forgiveness he had for me
Even through all my controversies.
Then he said "I must go, but I will see you soon."
In the open field he began walking towards a gleaming red door.
I yelled "Jesus, I love you!"
He turned around, smiled, and said "I love you more."

Mind Blown

Today I had to wake up earlier than usual. I had my college class final at 7am. I woke up at 5:45 to take a shower. I got a total of 5 hours of sleep, not my best idea before a final. Needless to say I felt like a zombie. I stood in the shower and just thought. I thought about how I'm here, in this shower, in my house, in this country, on this earth; only for God. He made ALL THINGS for HIS GLORY. Including me. Do you guys get that? If you talk to most people then they'll say how it's their life and they're living for themselves. Even if they don't realize it, they couldn't be more wrong. The only reason you and me are here is to glorify God. I just can't seem to wrap my mind around that. We are here because God wanted us to be. He chose us, before time even existed, and placed us here on earth to glorify Him. That's why we are here, right now. For him to be glorified. Nothing more. I hope more and more people can realize what I am slowly trying to unravel here. My heart aches and is upset for those who aren't on the right path, like Kind David in Psalm 119. What are you doing right now? Is it glorifying God? It is just you, and Him. Make Him proud.
