I want to see.


I want to see.

I want to see people in fire,
burning,
but without being consumed.

I want to see prayer and worship
married with justice and mission.

I want to see my generation
living true to their hearts
to stop faking and pretending
and feeling sorry for ourselves.

I want to see my generation
to carry each other,
to encourage and to empower,
to be honest and transparent
and pursue holiness
and tear down facades.

I want to see my generation
to stop worshiping the idol of materialism
to stop worshiping the idol of alcoholism
to stop worshiping the idol of individualism

I want to see my generation
to stop seeking acceptance from
work and positions of power
to stop seeking intimacy
from one night relationships

You can call me a dreamer
You can call me a preacher
You can call me a idealist

Perhaps you are right
But I want to learn to make a difference
to stir an evolution that makes a permanent change
silent revolution.

Oh Lord please grant me with wisdom
so I would not judge but love
so I would not presume but get to know
so I would not hide but learn to be present

And first of all,
I want to know You Lord
and hear you and feel you
and live in all this
from inside out.
