Born into this world, we were called to live
Not knowing what to do with ourselves
Going about with every breath drawn in
We were placed in different shelves
Experiencing our own trial and strife
Amidst this difference, we were united by one goal
Appointed to take that certain path
Everyone unsure
About facing the world’s wrath
But do we ever find the cure?
We are only students
Day breaks but night falls
Shadows (sins) are present everywhere
In every area of our lives, our vitality.
Shadows of laziness, insult, lust
Greed, and gluttony
Ships sail, but how many land?
New Years’ resolution,
Faith goals that came with tenacity
Spirit willing, but flesh weak.
Revealing vulnerability
Forever drowning in the ocean
Of hate and insecurity
Forever craving the essence
Of peace and serenity
And tranquility
Endlessly quarreling
About the littlest things
And controversies
Talking Apple vs Samsung vs Sony
How unnecessary!
We are only students.
As the seasons brush by
And each day slips past
We start to accept
God has no purpose and plan for me...
Thoughts of
will I ever get into a university?
or
do I have a bright future ahead me?
That is the Beauty of God.
No matter how many times you have sinned against Him
how many times you have ran away
He still say’s “Come to Me those who are burdened and weary”
from Mrs. Rocha to Ms. Linny,
Teachers that train and Mold
the world changers of the 21st century
Jeremiah 29:11: “ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Deuteronomy 31:16
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Those two verses has something in common
put your trust in Him, You will surely never come to ruin!
We are students.
prepared to take on every single challenge
to expand the kingdom
here on earth
future teachers
future Preachers
future servant leaders of this nation!
STAND UP!
for we are not just students but ambassadors
ambassadors of Christ
called to reach out
and change the system of sin!
to be the salt and light and be the very foundation,
for the coming generation and the next
so they may no longer see to hesitation
hesitation to do what is good,
and what is pleasing,
hesitation to to serve the King!
cause for every slumber there is an Awakening!
so wake up from this blasted dream,
and let Him wipe away every spec of sin!
for He is the only one!
So go forth! go forth and be leaders,
leaders that will lead the lost through the darkness that is upon them.
So that the Father can save them.
So He Can fix them!
Chapel might end today, but never stop praising Him!
This is the last spoken word poem that we wrote for our school wide chapel service, with the help of Jeremy Carlos and TJ Castillion.
This will be our letter for the coming batch of Grade 11 SY2014-2015
For as we leave the compounds of Victory Christian International School,
They will be the next leaders. Thank you for the wonderful 4 years of High School Guys! I am blessed that God put you guys in my life, Thank you...
