INNER EMAN

I'm intoxicated. Scratch that... I'm inebriated.


So if this starts going awry...I've been drinking...so that's why.


So..on that note..let Me introduce you to something My Mind wrote.


One day I heard a voice.  This voice said I didn't have a choice.  It was time for Me to step out on Faith.  And if I happened to get tired...He will help Me keep My pace.


I had to go on a journey to a place I've never seen.  The skies won't be blue.  The fields...won't be green.


I won't see happiness and Joy.. I won't see the smiles of lil girls and boys.  I won't see the light of day or the darkness of night.  In fact...


What I'll see...I won't need the use of sight.


So...I started to walk this rough and dusty road. Recording everything in My mind...so this story can be told.


Eyes shut...but I could see.


Not things of this Earth...no buildings or trees.


What I saw....


Was what was inside...of Me.


Dark. Cold. Fear.


No faith at all...even though... GOD was near.


I let this ole World turn Me cold.


50.....but I looked a Hundred years old.


No smile on this face.  No hope for the Human race.  No love for Me or any other Man.  No dreams of the future...cause for the future... I made no plans.


I was walking... inside of Me.  Eyes closed...but I could see.


I was made of unrecognizable stone.


And I wondered...why I was all alone.


But...in this small space...I saw a glow.
And this glow..began to grow.


And what I saw...was Hope's flickering Light.  A lil bit of Day..when all around Me...was dark as Night.


And the voice told Me...to open My eyes...and walk toward the flickering Light..cause that's where Hope lies.


And next thing I knew...the light...wellll..It grew.  And soon I was surrounded by a light ....so magnificent...so..bright...


colored...the Bluest of Blue.


And with eyes no longer blind.  I opened My heart...I opened My mind.


I began to Love....all of Mankind.


Because GOD took time to let Me see...
the darkest, coldest, part of Me.


And that's not the Man...I am destined to be.


I am Greater than I ever knew.


Old Emanuel...has become


Emanuel anew.


Now I see...what I was Born to be.


Amazing.


Magnificent.


Wonderful...
