oF lEARNING... oF cHRIST

Lately, my relationship with Christ has bothered me... Its not that I don't love Him as much as I used to, it's not that I don't feel His prescence as much as I used to, It's just that I realise I have become increasingly fearful: I've let that familiar fear creep in, I've let my friends point to my insecurities that I hardly see my accomplishments- and in all humility, I am a quite accomplished fellow, I've let rejection from friends/ loved ones form value judgement as to how I perceive myself...

tHIS pRESENT dARKNESS....

Engulfing... Consuming

of the option of grief


Swifty. Sadly

Everyday I face the same truth

Pain is like a thief in the night

Deep, quiet, persistent, unfair...


Puzzled. Illogical

In my grief I realize,

death is sad and final...


To me it once was said

'To honour our lost loves, we must live our own lives well'
