An Ignorant Boy

I have noticed something in the past few years of my life, something that I always sensed, but never knew what it was. God has pulled me apart from most of my generation for some reason that only he knows. He took me out of public education, he has pulled me away from the stereotypical 'boy friend-girl friend' game, he has given me his love to shine, and he has instilled in me a willing heart to follow this journey. I do not know where it will lead, or what all that I go through is for, but I know that I do not want to take the other route. He forged a strong connection with me and I can only trust that He knows the bigger plan in all of this, that he choose me for a reason. He has pulled me out of confusion and ignorance into a world that is way over my head. My only prayer is that he will find in me good soil and that wherever this path leads I will be able to follow. 

Though darker days arise

You will be my shield

Though I trek through drought

Your love is my yield 

When I can see no sun

You become my moon

When the shadows lengthen still

You bring high noon

Over mountain pass

Under earth and rot

I rest my trust in you

My heart has not forgot

The love that has been shown

You have my one good shot
