a good, very wise brother in Christ wrote this earlier and…
wow…i couldn’t have said…(or written) such a
thing any better…it really blessed me,
and i hope it blesses you aswell…
Tearing of this religious mask,
Revealing who I really am
No glitter, glamour, “godly” talk
No place where I will hide
Not playing games, deceiving myself
Not performing an act, fooling my God
Not pretending to stand, while I’m down on my face
I’m admitting my need, the need of His blood
It’s hopeless for us to walk this race alone
Desperation will soon increase
No hope, no help, no purity
Oh drop now to your knees
Perhaps no words are needed,
Your heart already says it all
“If You don’t keep me standing
How great will be my fall?”
“Revive me, make me real,
Renew me, make me whole
Restore me, heal my soul
Jesus, be my all-in-all!”
Forget about what people think,
What they will say or even pray
“You know this ungodly person…”
Never mind, let God have His way
Stand up, be right and sincere
Let no hypocrisy enter your heart
Be willing to lose your reputation
Be willing to make a brand new start
Let God minister to you,
Before you minister to people
Let God work His works in you
Lest your faith remains feeble
The way to revival and courage,
Is not through hearing men of God
Is not through reading godly books
or following the footsteps of C.T. Studd
The way to revelation and power
Is not through shedding many tears
Is not through praying many prayers
Is not through conquering your many fears
The way to revelation and power,
The way to revival and courage
Is through knowing the Son of men,
Who answers every problem with: “I can”
I’ll seek the Giver, not the gift
All my masks I’ll throw away
No career for me in acting
There’s one thing I desire to pray
“Revive me, make me real,
Renew me, make me whole
Restore me, heal my soul
Jesus, be my all-in-all!”
-Paul (dezcall)

Hey. That is a picture of a horse I train…he’s not mine. But he’s so sweet I wish he was. Do you have any horses? I know you said you train them. Well, have a great day. Oh yeah. That’s a great poem.
This is great
