Bearing fears
When you switch off the lights at night,
Have you ever felt that something is not right?
When you walk alone along an isolated path,
Have you ever felt insecurities rising up in your gut?
When you glimpse a shadow of sort pass by,
Did an image of an imaginary 'ghost' flash by?
The sudden shrill cry of a baby in the distance,
Might have made you feel uncomfortable.
In the morning when you are at school,
And the teacher was just about to release your results,
Did palpitations occur frighteningly fast,
While you can't control them without a fuss?
And have you felt as though,
Something is at work here,
That causes us to have so much fear.
For emotional beings this is unavoidable,
About happenings that we experience,
And nervous things that we encounter.
This famed protagonist is none other than the spirit of fear.
Few of us know of its existence,
While others thought that they were unconquerable.
However we must remember that God is always around us.
24/7 without fail He is here to protect us.
The one who created the wonderful nature around us,
(Which by the way is of no coincidence or chance)
He can make more than miracles occur.
With Him, nothing is imposible.
With Him, we really have nothing to fear.
For fear is not from God,
Who only want the best things for us.
So put those fear-leading thoughts away,
And feel the incredible work of God at play.
For God is here and everywhere,
Why can't you still put down the burdens in your heart,
And fill up the empty void present,
With love from God instead.

Drifting Away from God
I felt a deep remorse creeping up from my heart.
When i prayed to God that night.
I felt that i didn't do my part,
When others always gave all their might.

I promised that I would read the bible each day.
Yet I the initiator, broke my own pomise.
No wonder I held God at bay,
When I myself have no credits to say.

I tried hard to keep up with the pace of God.
Indeed i tried to follow Him.
But alas misfortunes do happen.
I grew tired of the faith eventually.

I wanted to lay my head down.
I wanted to just give a small little yawn.
I wanted very much to sleep on and on.
But something prevented me from doing so.

Why is it that I can't bring myself to just let go of the faith?
Being a Chriatian is hard.
We mustn't stray away, even for a day.
And yet i did, just for once.

Each time I let the demons of anger and frustration take over me,
I would have sinned.
But God made sure i came back to Him,
Through subtle means.

I am always tied to God.
No matter where am I,
Or what i have become,
I would always come back to Him.

A part of me could not bear to leave Him.
He has ingrained his roots deep in me.
Indeed I am His child.
How else could I hate to sin?

At the end of each day,
When the curtain closes,
I would find myself alone with God,
Would I rejoice or face Him guiltily?

That is still uncertain.
I can't say what could happen,
But i knew something for sure.

That I would always give it all I've got,
To come back on track.
To keep Him within my sight.
And to always follow Him en route,
To His Heaven.
