I'm afraid to trust You
Take me and teach me
Who are You beyond religion?
Beyond our institutions
And tidy answers?
I fear Your power, love and mystery
I don't understand Your ways
Take me to the wild wilderness
And let me see Your thunder
Take my identity
Give me a name only we know
Take my dreams and direction
Let me wonder aimless
If it means I go with You
I don't want religion's safety games
Keep the labels and recognition away
I have failed You in everything
And I'm too tired and scared
To ever wish to play again
Take me somewhere I can trust
May my broken heart be Yours
Though I haven't the strength to give it
Let me learn the quiet of Your love...

It is interesting how though we are pulling away from religious stuff just like Jesus but yet the Church would say we are doing something wrong. Are we seeing things wrong? Isn't there more to Christianity than religion?
In order to please God, it can seem like we have to upset the church some times.
I am one of Jacki's friends from Teen Mania and I ended up at your site through her xanga. I just wanted to say that I really like that poem. Oh and congratulations on your graduation!
