I was on facebook today and I came across this video on my friends page. I was just going to pass it by.
I didn't think that it was worth watching, but something told me to press play. This poem blew me away.
With me being Christian it really touched me. It made me question myself, my life and my desires. As a college student
its easy to lose focus on really living the right way. Its easy to be religious but hard to be spiritual. You can go through the motions,
but if you are not living right its hard to continue to have that true connection to God. Where he can abide in you.
Another point this poem made, was that it easy to quotes scripture of comfort. The ones that promises us prosperity, but we
hate to read the ones that convict us. He ends it with how bless we are that Jesus died on the cross for our sins. And thats when
I realized that is how I am saved. Poetry should move you, and it should inspire you. Love to hear people perform poetry.
You feel their expressions and your not confused on what they want you take away from the poem.
