This is the section of Strive4Impact.com, where you can read, every day, something I wrote since I was 13 years old (1993).  Some of it's adolescent angst, but some of it is quite good, and I hope you'll agree.  What are we up to now? Currently, my wife and I are traveling the world and blogging our experience.  We may have been somewhere you would like to go, or maybe we could come to meet you?  Either way, you may find our reviews and advice helpful.  Check it out at http://www.CarrieAndJonathan.com

Inner Light 2

January 1994
(Jonathan is 14)

Inner Light (2)

I had a vision of a man one night,
he was walking in a dream.
He pulled out a little charm,
it was like nothing I'd ever seen.

So intricate in its design,
it was part of a greater plan,
yet I knew not what it was,
that he held in his hand.

Then a light came directly from him,
and was given to me inside,
and for some reason it couldn't come out,
even though it tried and tried.

Through my life it started to grow,
from things I'd seen and done,
and I could hold it inside no longer,
when I was proven the power of one.

It was now time to let it out,
and share it with the future,
now a time for the hate to stop,
so a better tomorrow could occur.

Now it's time for you to work
on letting your light emerge,
no holding back, don't try to stop it,
but let your power surge.

And as a prayer every night,
pray these words to God,
and learn to praise him in his throne,
with glory, honor, and laud.

Lord, please bring down the light,
and wrap it all around me.
let it hold me lovingly tight,
and protect us like a shield.

Lord, please, bring down the light,
and wrap it all around me.
Let it always hold me tight,
and show me how to feel.
