Renewal

Let the rain fall down,
And wash me clean,
Cleanse my heart,
Let me be free,
From my broken past,
Myself renewed,
A new commitment,
That I'll be true,
Out of the dark,
And in in the light,
Now I see,
The black and white,
No longer blurred,
By shades of gray,
I see the truth,
And it's here to stay.

LIVE Life

Is it enough to live,
Is it enough to breathe,
To live life to its fullest,
What is it that we need?
Color outside the lines,
Live where no one else thinks,
Find out where your passions lie,
And take it to the brink,
Don't let life drag you down,
See the beauty in the everyday,
Seek until you find it,
And Strive to make a way,
Dance across the sunlight,
Float among the clouds,
love like you haven't been hurt,
And trust without any doubts.

Renewal

Let the rain fall down,
And wash me clean,
Cleanse my heart,
Let me be free,
From my broken past,
Myself renewed,
A new commitment,
That I'll be true,
Out of the dark,
I'm in the light,
Now I see,
The black and white,
No longer blurred,
By shades of gray,
I see the truth,
And it's here to stay.

wow.

Church tonight was amazing.Worship was so powerful.
I love it when I can truly get to that place where its just me and God, and everything else just disappears...
Sadly that doesn't happen as frequently as I wish it would.
I find myself distracted by the littlest things, pulling my attention away so it is no longer fully on God.
It annoys the heck outta me!!!
I realize it's happening yet even in realizing that the fact itself distracts me!
I get so frustrated sometimes...
Luckily, tonight wasn't one of them. :D
God's presence was so powerful, it was awe-inspiring... overwhelming...
I have been praying for a while now that God would renew my passion for him, because I had sort of fallen numb, doing the whole "Christian routine" rather than stepping out in faith. I hadn't been feeling that passionate connection I had known.
Tonight God finally answered that prayer, renewing my passion for his word, and for my relationship with him.
I praise God right now with all my heart, soul, and mind.
:D :D :D :D

God Bless Y'all :P

Nathan & I's joint Bible study begins. :)

So Nathan and I are starting a joint bible study.
We decided to read through one book of the Bible each week in our personal devotions, and at the end of each week we will spend some time together discussing what we read, what God was telling us through it, and about our spiritual lives, what we are struggling with etc.
This week we are going to read through Matthew.
If the trend continues i suppose we will just work our way through the New Testament.
Anyways...... yeah.....
I'm going to bed now. chau.

Release

The music calls my name,
Flowing through my fingers,
Lyric, melody,
Wistful words that linger,
The quiet sounds of nature,
Fill my mind with peace,
I grab my pad of paper,
to feel that sweet release,
As the words flow freely,
From mind to hand to pen,
My mind soars in the stars,
From beginning to the end.

Okay, so..........

So I'm really new at this blogging stuff...
I've never been good at writing in anything regularly, so..... I'm not gonna promise I will.
This is a place for me to vent.
A place where I can write my poetry, rant about stuff..... whatever I feel like.
This blog, for me, is a place where I am going to show the real me.
That's sorta the significance of the name.
I'm showing who I am "behind my guarded eyes"
One thing I do ask is that nobody uses my poetry in anything without permission.
Poetry is my form of art, and as author of my poems, it really ticks me off when someone steals it from me. I am very protective of them. So... yeah please don't do that.
Anyways, here's to the beginning of my blog!
