So I was planning to write about a concert I went to yesterday, but came up with a better idea instead. I decided to write about certainty. So little of my life is certain at the moment so I find myself needing to be reminded of the truths that I know to be one hundred percent fact:
I know that grass is green
I know that fire is hot and rain is wet
I know that 2 + 2 = 4
I know that I'm bad, I sin, I say mean things, I act rudely, I'm lazy
I know that an apple is a fruit
I know that the sun rises in the east and dies in the west
I know that this is repetetive
I know that you, Father, have plans for me
I know that even though I am weak you are strong
I know that, God, You came down in human form and died for me to save me from myself
I know that one day I'm going to go home and be with You forever
I know that every day people die, seasons turn, ice melts, clocks keep ticking, fashion changes, society changes, tears fall, smiles rise and fire dies
Yes Father I know that even though the world keeps on turning into new holes and hopes You are the constant axis on which it hangs
I know that humanity owes its existance to you
I know that by your wounds I am healed
I know that this life belongs to you
I know that You deserve this capital letter and so much more
I know that You deserve my life and devotion, so Father I'll try my best
I know that I have a family
I know that Jane Austen existed
I know that Jesus existed
I know that these words will soon be forgotten, even by me
I know that this blog post will end
