New Spoken Word

Well I wrote this from  6- 6:30 today so it should be good. Well here it  is.

People look at this generation as a bunch of  pot smoking, sex having, conformers of the world.

But people are so used to seeing the negative side

That they miss the prize

That’s hidden down within

They don’t see their heart

cause they’re worried about their part

their “role” in society

but when you think about it everyones is the same

cause we (as in you and me) are supposed to live a life glorifying his name

But instead we’re to busy worrying about what everyone else is doing

that we forget what we’re about

instead of excepting and love

we deny and judge

we push away and hate

when we need to speak his name before it’s to late

So let’s change our perspective

instead of seeing the dead crack addict

see the person inside who wants to live

instead of seeing the girl that sleeps around with everyone

see the broken girl who is searching for the one

the one thing that will fulfill that need inside

one who’s not  just in it for a while ride

one who believes in her someone who cares

the thing is he’s already there

He died on the cross and took all our pain

and Jesus Christ happens to be his name.

    hey you need to read “all the hits so far”. i got it for jordan for his birthday (and i read the whole thing in like three hours the night before i gave it to him. lol.)

    the guys name is bradley hathaway…he’s a hardcore kid…and writes the coolest poetry ever! i bet you’d enjoy reading it.

    well…good luck at school!!!!! wooooohoooo!!!

  8. TBarry – This post is so “what you are about!” And you are “about” the Father’s business! You see the small glimmer of hope in each person you meet…whether it is a crack addict on the streets of L.A. or the guy who sits next to you in Algebra class…you recognize the “search” in the soul! I guess this next statement is truly an admission that I am “middle-aged”…but I feel a certain security in the next generation…I observe you and Paul and Jamie and Tramar and I know that Jesus’ name will be carried to Ryleigh’s generation by people like you! Preach on, T-Barry!
    Love,
    Momma Moose
