It's very difficult being radical with this topic. You may have noticed that I didn't nail a blog this December. I was working on it, but wasn't able to finish it. It was such as disappointment. I wasted a lot of time not putting much effort in writing it, but when I had the time, I putted too much effort in "make it rhyme, make it rhyme" than making it "convicting, edifying, and God-glorifying". So much of my disappointment was on that. Thus, I have to write about that to remember what I'm writing about and why I'm writing them:
I'm regaining my poetic hat
Abandoning the rhymes in raps
Because a lot of time has lapsed
Because the style's holding me back
I thought that freestyle accelerates
My blogging, just to demonstrate
God's glory and to penetrate
The heart's of men with these debates
It's good to make my efforts better
Composing raps for my Redeemer
But me and my comrades discovered
I fell into this pit of danger:
I'm even moving much, much slower
And it is proving I'm stopping over
Into a halt; completely under
A fearful spiritual slumber
I love to read God's passages
And share His holy messages
But I'm more focused on eloquence
Than bringing out His law's commands
That said, you also may have to strive
Proclaiming God and raise Him high
But please don't ever sacrifice
His Word just for your source of pride
You see how He is so fantastic
And shouting Him you go ballistic
I pray, however, just for this bit
On yourself don't be legalistic
We toil to spread what's in the Bible
And don't want to have time that's idle
We do that till His sweet arrival
But that work may be our idol
Instead of saying firstly this:
"My Christ's blood, I've to share this!"
I'm ending up in saying this:
"My mind, my blog, I've to share this!"
There could be little difference
In striving for His reverence
And working as a veteran
I should know what to enter in
In times I blogged I should've seen
"Is this for God and eternity
Or just a monthly activity
That leaves my heart for Him a cavity?"
"Now thus, Oh my Lord I will pray
In my words I won't concentrate
Because as I show men Your ways
You'll make me better anyway
I know that you'll improve my skill
If it's Your move, if it's your will
Please move me, I know that I'm ill
But I want to be an agent in the sins You kill!"
