Welcome!
HUMBLY IRRELEVANT,
I truly loved, loved, loved your powerful poem. If that strong message from the Lord does not wake up the the people than I do not know what else will.
You said:
AMEN!!!
THE FINAL HOUR
HEAVEN OR HELL? IT IS YOUR CHOICE!!
I agree Patti Day.
I've only been out of high school over 2 years,graduated May 2011. And what those college age [and I'm sure it's much worse for the younger ones now] have went through...
The music for ex. is nothing short of demonic. Most of the lyrics you can't even understand. It seems like not much is labled "cool" music anymore unless it deals with sex,drugs,money or some vile thing. I had to put up with that when I was in school,starting in junior high [later on it was played on the bus. Thankfully though I had a CD player eventually.It wasa total living nightmare when the batteries died.] I think that music has some kind of controlling power.
I remember in I think both 7th grade band and 8th grade music [I know he played it in both classes not sure if he asked who liked the music in just 7th or 8th though]. Anyways,whichever class it was,Mr. F. [taught both classes] asked us who didn't like the music. I was so terrified I was going to get beat up for saying I didn't like it. So, I kept my mouth shut and suffered through it.
In 8th grade I was into a deep suicidal depression. The music on the bus made me even worse [thankfully I did have a CD player but it still got through because the music was loud. Not screetching loud but too loud for me]. It's by God's Grace I don't always hear words correctly. For I thought words in a song said "So excidal". No, it said "suicidal..."
If I would have heard that correctly while wanting to kill myself [actually I did try to kill myself on the bus atleast once. I put my head on the glass window hoping the bus driver would come to a sudden stop...]than I don't think I'd be here right now. Because if I would have been encouraged by a song to kill myself I probably would have tried until I suceeded [that's how bad it was for me]. And with as bad as that music was on the bus [You see at times I was ok and wasn't thinking about suicide. But once certain songs would come on it would trigger something in me to want to kill myself]. It got so bad I wanted to hear the music so my depression would worsen.
Music later on would still cause me to have dread,feel trapped,stuff like that. I noticed certain songs triggered it.
I know atleast once I heard a song on t.v. It was like it wasn't even me [I think it was before Jesus saved me but I was I'm pretty sure in high school]...I had a pink dinosaur taradactal toy and threw it. I couldn't control my anger. Whatever song it was made me so angry.
I remember [I think it was ether 9th or 10th grade] some mothers complained about the music on the bus. It got taken off the rest of the year. Someone wanted to know if I did it. Thankfully someone spoke up and said I didn't since I had a CD player. A boy wanted to get a petition to get the music back on.
There's so much other stuff that has youth entrapped. Like in 10th grade I remember there was a play about a guy selling his soul to the Devil for a Yankee's game. I remember when someone came in to tell us in class about it a boy shouted out "Cool!"
