Know

Running up to me in the kitchen, exclaiming

"See, this doesn't make sense! They ask me

'Is the Bible true?'

And the answer is 'Because it says it's true'

But if they don't believe the Bible at all

how will they ever believe it's right?"

I flashed him a smile, with a weak chuckle

"Yeah, funny how that works.

I don't know either. Guess it has to be divine.

The believing, I mean. Divine."

When logic fails, and a numbing culture

sets the ground for discounting all Christianity,

there's nothing left to argue.

I can be cynical, I apologize; I've struggled with this for years.

Praying and wishing for that golden breakthrough

with some of the closest of my acquaintances...

(ah, I cry myself to sleep.)

Be the example

Live the life

Get up when you fail

Rejoice when you succeed

Never be ashamed

"Live your life, Dane, with God's love growing in you.

Be a strong, Christian man."
