Everyone of my friends always tell me take thime for my self. When i was running myself ragged a few months back. I did i found nothing but silence. but in that silence i could hear Gods voice
Take a break
By Charlie Herring

Take a break
Take some time
Get your mind together
And get on with your  life
Words spoken by friends

But they don’t
Own heart ache
They don’t
Live the lye
A mask for every occasion
A stranger in a friends eye

Move along
Sing your song
Claim your fame
Hide your shame
Songs sung by demons
The words echo
In my ears
I feel them near

My god
Send your holy armor
Send a holy protection
Keep me strong
I am weak
Keep me going
Don’t let me stop
I want to be with you
For you
Are my god
Tell me your command
And I will follow
Speak the word
And I shall be sacrifice

The battle
For my soul
Can not be lost
My god
You are my
General
My god
You
Are my banner
My God
You are
My god!
Through he who
Strengthens me
I can
I will
I must
Do all things
For him
With him
In him




 work like you don't need the money,
dance like no one's watching, and
love like you've never been hurt

zorkon - Ahhh, that blessed silence.  This is a wonderful illustration of your journey.  Isn't it just awesome, how He comes when we invite Him... This is great.  Bonnie

Nicely done Charlie!
That still, small, voice can sure be hard to hear sometimes. I like the way you tuned everything else out to hear it. Good poem!

I like this one very much. It states in Psalms that we need to take time and be still.

Be still and know that I am the Lord.

For with him are all things, without him is nothing. Love the message!!!
