The monotony of it all. Chasing the wind; searching for meaning. How do I rekindle the flame, renew desire? I walk close to the edge yet no one knows. I flirt with death yet no one sees. What balm is there for a broken spirit? Who will help this gladiator fallen in life’s arena. Should I pray with no proof that anyone hears? Should I believe based on another mans experiences? Should I be silent when turmoil rages within? Should I smile when it is clear that I am lost? I approach the “men of God”, those who seem to have a hotline to the heavens but they portray a persona so unlike the “man from God” who chose to ride a mule instead of a horse even when the crowds screamed in adoration. Must I feign joy when questions rage within? Must I believe his love and close my eyes to so many unanswered questions. Does the punishment fit the crime, is an eternity in torment just punishment for eighty years of sin(dats if I live up 2 80)? How would we react to a human ruler who tormented his enemies in a cell, yet we so easily accept a loving Father who does so. Does he do so, or do we misunderstand his words, misinterpret his scriptures. Justice means the punishment fits the crime and it is a poor philosophical argument that would make an eternity in torment payment for eighty years of sin. I wonder what “screwtape letters “are being written over my soul. Will this path I take draw me closer to the heavens or hurl me to the underworld? Yet I must be true to myself because on the last day I will stand alone, no preachers no family no friends. Just I and the Almighty; and my sojourn on earth will determine if that day will be one of a Father scolding his son or a Judge passing judgment. I write these words to remember, I pen my thoughts to document my spiritual growth. Like John the Baptist I am not afraid to ask are you the one and like Thomas I would readily admit my lord and my God. Read these words of Emmanuel Ebuka (Don Emmy) and ponder because this is ur journey, this is ur life afraid to ask “are you the one” and like Thomas I would readily admit “my Lord and my God”. Read these words aslan333 and ponder because this is your journey, this is your life.
