Laugh at me--I'm whistling in the rain.
Look at me--I'm dancing through the pain.
I was born to be vibrant--
Simple, simple joy
So foolish, yet so wise
Reckless, reckless love
So carefree, yet so strong
I was born to be vibrant--
I used to cry in shame
Now tears flow & I am unafraid
I used to be giddy & empty
Now I laugh & am full
Look & see--what love has done to me
Take & taste--what food has made me free
I was born to be vibrant--
I am a thunderstorm personified;
Made by God
Electrified by God
I was born to be vibrant--
Sweet, sweet Christ--
You are water to my desert soul
Purest, purest Jesus--
Your love has loved me whole
I was born to be vibrant
But I was born depraved & dull
I was born to be vibrant
And love has made me so
At last, love has made me so

"He was supreme in the beginning and—leading the resurrection parade—he is supreme in the end. From beginning to end he's there, towering far above everything, everyone. So spacious is he, so roomy, that everything of God finds its proper place in him without crowding. Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe—people and things, animals and atoms—get properly fixed and fit together in *vibrant* harmonies, all because of his death, his blood that poured down from the cross."
Colossians 1:18-20 The Message
"Present yourselves as building stones for the construction of a sanctuary *vibrant* with life, in which you'll serve as holy priests offering Christ-approved lives up to God."
1 Peter 2:5 The Message
Words cannot even describe how I feel about that poem. It is wonderful Rebekah, just awesome.
Did you write that?
Yep. :)
Hey Sis!
How are you doing?
I started work today!!! Much fun!
Is this poem an almost rendition of the one you had spinning around a while back? We were trying to put it to music. It reminds me a little of it.
Hey you--
How did it go? Are they treating you right? :)
This isn't exactly a rendition, it merely expresses some of the same feelings and concepts as the last.
Missing you much my dear!
