Lord,
speak through me.
May your words like rushing waters come,
undiluted by my own sense of wisdom,
untouched by the intentions of my heart.
I seek only to know you more,
that I may attempt to adequately describe
that which I am not fit to describe.
Let me never forget your face.
If ever I have misinterpreted you,
please forgive me and provide me with greater discernment,
that I may love you more
and recognise my shepherd’s voice.
If I have misrepresented you knowingly,
may my voice be silenced forevermore,
that I may never again lead your children astray.

19.12.10

… and the cry of my heart is to bring you praise.

Lord, You have my heart.

There are revolutions that define the world around us, and it is no different with the world within us. With each step I’ve taken, each breath I’ve breathed, I’ve seen shifts in my immediate thoughts and in the words that come.

I have no doubt in my mind that one of the greatest changes came when Jesus came and met me where I was, standing still in the middle of some nameless road. And although my words have since evolved once again, I’m unsure as to whether they will ever see another big change.

I wish I had kept each edition of this section so that I can more clearly see how and when it all got torn down to be rebuilt.

Having rediscovered the joy of sitting alone while surrounded by people, listening to music that no one else can hear and writing words that few care to read, I hope that I can continue on in a similar vein for at least the rest of my life. I realise, looking over the missing days in my writing archives, that I’ve placed one of my greatest passions behind many of my earthly concerns and weaknesses fueled only by myself. I hope to create some resolve with which to conquer this, so that I can really get back to what I enjoy doing most, while hopefully enjoying the actual act of doing it at the same time.

I think this is probably the most revealing version of “About” that this site has seen thus far, and wonder if and when anyone will ever read it.

    young,

    all of us have that special moment of solitude. we have that inner oasis amidst the maddening crowd such as you are.

    It’s not that i don’t enjoy their company — in fact, I think I prefer to be surrounded by them, even superficially.
