I've Been Infected!
I guess the blogging craze has finally caught up with me, or am I just looking for a space to be me? Sometimes I feel that people, generally, aren't really interested in what I have to say. I wonder if it's because what I'm talking about is boring, my voice is boring or I'm just plain boring?
Anyhow, I am searching for a place to air my views. As Kim reminded me, "Don't bottle things up." And that's exactly what I've been doing for so long. So much so that I forgot how to let people know what I'm truly feeling inside. I've been caught up in being "nice" all the time, advocating peace and not conflict. Or so it seemed. Not speaking my mind is actually beginning to eat me inside...
Bottled Up
Is it good to bottle things up,
Without saying a word?
Keeping true feelings inside,
To others unheard?
Avoiding conflicts,
Enforcing peace.
Am I really happy?
What did I miss?
- Me
here i am
Praise the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.
Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,
praise him with tambourine and dancing,
praise him with the strings and flute,
praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.
Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.
(Psa 150:1-6)
this is me
Christ's life showed me how, and enabled me to do it. I identified myself completely with him. Indeed, I have been crucified with Christ. My ego is no longer central. It is no longer important that I appear righteous before you or have your good opinion, and I am no longer driven to impress God. Christ lives in me. The life you see me living is not "mine," but it is lived by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. (Gal 2:20 MSG)
